This Staffordshire platter by Midwinter is an exquisite artifact of the table, whispering stories of genteel suppers and refined hospitality. The maroon and gold palette evokes a quiet opulence, with ornate gilding that suggests the delicate brushwork of an artisan’s steady hand. Each golden floret at the center is a sunburst of elegance, a subtle yet sovereign presence on the ivory field.
Midwinter’s legacy in Staffordshire’s illustrious pottery heritage is encapsulated in this piece. It is a platter not just made, but composed with a symphony of colour and detail that speaks to the connoisseur’s soul. The gold, meticulously laid, does not shout of wealth; instead, it hums a tune of timeless grace.
This platter is more than a vessel for grand courses; it is a tapestry woven from the threads of English ceramic mastery. For the collector, it is not the acquisition that matters, but the communion with a piece that stands as a testament to the art of dining, an embodiment of an era where every meal was a pageant and every table setting a masterpiece.
