  2. I used to have a complete set until I flew into an Objet d′rage smashing Darth Vader and Jabba the Hut.

  3. I couldn't eat from a plate showing the picture of a smelly dog.

  4. I do apologise Madame. Cook is suffering from clamdruff and is less than attentive in the ablutionary department. Apart from that, did Madame enjoy her soup of the day?

    Makes a change from the boring old willow pattern. Was Darth Vader surrounded by lilies and Jabba The Hut with "hand painted" periwinkles?

    I don't think they were designed to be eaten from Mago. Well, I suppose you could. People here hang the decorative ones on their walls. Do they in your neck of the woods or is it a quaint old english thing? I have two antique ones in the boudoir and two in the living room of a hedgehog and a dormouse.

  5. Yes, wall plate, as you saied in the title. No, it's not an English only specialty. I do not have such items ... well, yes, I DO own some kitsch. I know some households where the walls are nearly plastered with such earthenware, and tiny houses, angels, geese you name it. Nippes!

  6. I'm thinking a charming English trend of displaying decorative plates in a cottage fashion has a trashy side to it. If you can't display fine china in a luxurious cabinet...then hang tacky plates on the wall with cheap plate rack spring hooks!

  7. Or try to nail it to the wall, Pirate.
    I once helped to clean out an appartement of an old lady. She had some of them plates glued to the wall / tapestry. Really.
