Antique LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE Portrait PINK LUSTER RETICULATED Souvenir Plate

Description

Here we have
an antique souvenir plate featuring a reticulated embossed lattice and pansy border surrounding a transferware portrait "engraving" of the (Stock) Exchange of London on a pink lustre background. The completely frivolous audaciousness of the design is fabulous, and will be much-loved by just the right person, lol, perhaps a queer British stock broker out there who "has it all," or will, once you gift them with this delightful plate. We have lots of transfer ware, flow blue, and aesthetic ware in our shop, and we add antique China and vintage dinnerware to our store weekly. Always happy to combine shipping at actual cost.*

Condition
: Our photos are the most informative and important part of our description. Please enlarge and zoom in on all of them, and examine them closely. Overall condition is Shabby Chic. A fabulous plate that manages to overcome its poor condition. Very clean, bright, colorful and fun. Most of the pink lustre and gold embellishment is gone. There is a complex set of hairlines on the back, a bit of which shows through to the front but isn't noticeable unless you're right on top of the plate inspecting it. The portrait is finely detailed and in spectacular condition with beautiful color, very fine detailing, and not even a scratch. In fact there don't appear to be any scratches on the plate at all. And no chips or crazing. The hairlines feel very stable.
We're happy to
combine shipping at actual cost on all pieces
purchased and paid for
on one single invoice/order.
In order to take advantage of this shipping cost savings, you must, must, must combine all of your pieces into one order and pay for all of them at once. Ebay checkout may very well do everything it can to prevent you from doing this. Don't ask why. We don't know why. It's crazy. If this happens to you, stop, do not pay. Back out of that mess and shoot us a message instead, asking for a combined invoice, and then wait to pay from that.
If you pay for your items individually instead of combining them into one order and making one payment for that order, you will get stuck paying a shipping fee for each piece. Ebay has instituted many new policies recently, giving us no leeway on combining shipping of items paid for separately.
The Fine Print:
We expect payment within 1 day of purchase. If you're waiting for other auctions to end so that you can combine shipping, shoot us a message to let us know.
If you're unable to pay within terms, please reach out with your Plan B. Things happen. Especially these days. So just shoot us a message.
We don't accept buyer-remorse returns but we will grant you the use of our description and photos so that you can re-ebay the item yourself.
Although we don't accept buyer-remorse returns, reach out if you're unhappy with your purchase! If we messed up -- everybody does -- give us a chance to fix it. We promise it was unintentional, and we'll do what we can to make it right.
