We do currently have the trio but in the interests of offering the greatest number of options, each item is advertised separately ... take a look HERE

The backstamp suggests this side plate is a product from the 1970's, not long before Salisbury closed down.
CONDITION:
NO cracks
NO crazing
NO discolouration EXCEPT I can see two TINY faint dots (or similar) on the china topside. I cannot shift them with a clean at all. Take a look at the photograph and do a "Where's Wally" hunt for these marks, they are VERY difficult to see and find.
Gold gilding to the scalloped outer rim is in very good condition, practically NO WEAR
Very nice saucer and when part of a trio, a stunning alternative to the much more common "standard roses" themed trio's
