Perhaps you have never heard of 'Whatever It Takes', the British charity organisation with the aim of working with leaders to assist and encourage a generation of influencers to take ownership, engage in positive action, raise awareness among their communities, and champion the solutions to poverty and environmental degradation.

They have gathered over 700 leaders: royalty, Nobel Peace Prize laureates, business leaders, actors, musicians, artists, fashion designers, sportsmen and sportswomen and writers to endorse their products, artwork and music for the purposes of fund raising to finance their cause.

Have a look at their website HERE to gain a much better understanding about the organisation

 

CERAMIC DISPLAY PLATE

Endorsed by Sir Michael & Lady Shakira Cain

I imagine just about anyone knows Sir Michael & Lady Shakira Cain, but just in case .... HERE is a link to copious amount of information about them!

Design: Sunflower

Transferware

Plate Dimensions: 202mm diameter

Churchill product

Made in China

Churchill was actually formed in 1795, producing earthenware initially and they became very well known for their hotelware. The famous 'Blue Willow' pattern was first produced by this company in 1818.

As often happens with the English pottery works, manufacturing went offshore, this plate having been made in China by Churchill

To see the FULL information about the history of Churchill, take a look HERE

Unfortunately the artist is NOT credited - we bought this presentation plate because of the plate design, we love sunflowers (see our other Sunflower design HERE)

Both Sir Michael & Lady Shakira Cain have signed the front of the plate AND the rear, with a 'meaningful' quote added

'Smile Today

Life is not a rehearsal'

PACKAGING:

Overall, good condition - I have not used the description of very good because the top of the cardboard packaging has some light scuff marks after being stored in the display cabinet.

Corners are all secure

Elastic used to hold the plate inside the packaging is in very good condition

Inside (underneath the plate) is a small 8 page booklet which details every plate produced in the series along with photographs (8 of them) if anyone was interested in putting the set together

 

Since we are now finding this item a new home, it has been sealed in cellowrap to ensure the condition is maintained (dust free etc)

Condition exactly as described Non-returnable used product
