Sailor&#39 s Farewell Side Plate 20cm

Crafted in fine bone china, this medium sized plate features an array of the whimsical motifs which form the illustrative story of The Sailorâs Farewell. Originally created as a fabric pattern by the renowned designer, Kit Kemp this plate has a pale blue linen look finish, echoing the original, against which we find a guiding compass, the sailorâs ship with its rust red sails, a whale, silvery fish and a frogman exploring a shipwreck beneath the waves with an enticing house under a palm tree on a faraway desert island. This imaginative design is skilfully embellished with a deeper blue and hand-applied 22 carat gold trim and forms part of a second collaboration between the designer and Wedgwood continuing Kitâs love of folklore. Backstamped for authenticity and presented in a Wedgwood blue gift box, this is a charming piece which forms part of a stylish tableware collection used in two of the boutique hotels in New York and London co-owned by Kit Kemp.
