T.G. Green Original Cornish Kitchen Ware Blue and White Side Plate

At 18 cm in diameter, this T.G. Green Original Cornish Kitchen Ware blue and white side plate carries the bold blue banding on cream that has made Cornish Kitchen Ware one of the most enduringly popular and widely collected British kitchen ceramic ranges, the Original designation confirming this as an example of the classic pattern rather than one of the later colourway variants.

Made by T.G. Green of Church Gresley, Derbyshire, Cornish Kitchen Ware has been in continuous production since the 1920s, the bold blue banding on a cream earthenware body remaining the defining characteristic of the range across a century of manufacture. The side plate, at 18 cm in diameter, is one of the most versatile forms in the Cornish Kitchen Ware range, suited to use at the table as well as display on a dresser or shelf, and this example, marked as T.G. Green Original, is in very good condition throughout, the banding crisp and the glaze sound. The Cornish Kitchen Ware side plate is the kind of piece that collectors of British kitchen ceramics seek out both for use and for the pleasure of assembling a complete table setting in the pattern.
