They are lovely Tony, but dont you find it a bit uncomfortable stashing them in your drawers?

I came by this blue and white plate hiding under a stack of modern plates. It has to be one of the most stunning blue and white tranferware i have ever seen. I know i don't get out much like.

Marked IVANHOE WEDGWOOD ETRURIA ENGLAND. Dates somewhere around 1890's.

That is fabulous! I love blue and white transferware but I haven't seen this one before. It's not in my Miller's transferware book either.
Cheers!

I bought this vase or planter today for £3. I'm not sure if this would be called Black Basalt or not. It's twelve and a half inches across, so a decent size. It has a very faint Etruria and Barlastan mark, and the impressed Wedgwood mark. I think the 61 on it means 1961.

That's rather snazzy... the matte black always looks very chic, I like it.  The Wedgwood Museum has a page on its website about black basalt: http://www.wedgwoodmuseum.org.uk/learning/discovery_packs/pack/classical/chapter/black-basalt
