This twelve-piece collection of decorative plates from the 'Waterbirds of the World' series was designed by renowned bird artist Basil Ede for Franklin Porcelain. The set features a detailed and lifelike depiction of various waterbirds, making this collection particularly appealing to enthusiasts of ornithology and classic porcelain.
Each plate is crafted from fine porcelain and finished with a refined 24-carat gold rim. The collection includes the 'Snow Goose', 'Canada Goose', 'Green-Winged Teal', 'Canvasback', and 'American Golden Plover', among others. The plates were produced in Japan in 1981 as a limited edition. The set comes complete with the original certificates of authenticity and accompanying hanging systems.
The plates are in excellent condition and appear unused. The original documentation and the included plate hangers emphasize the completeness and the care with which this collection has been preserved.
These classic decorative plates look stunning in a traditional or country-style interior. They make an elegant wall decoration in a study, dining room, or hallway, where the detailed illustrations add a refined accent to the space.
