This vintage Crown Ducal 1930s golf plate is a charming piece of tableware, showcasing a humorous golf scene. Its elegant design and excellent condition make it a desirable collectible.
Crafted by Crown Ducal in England, this plate is a product of the Florentine collection, dating back to about 1935. It features a cream-colored base with an embossed floral and fruit design in the same hue. A central, full-color illustration depicts a golfer and his caddy in period attire. The plate measures 8″ in diameter and has a unique shape with eight evenly spaced divots around the edge.
The plate’s focal point is a humorous depiction of a golfer and his caddy. The golfer is portrayed in a moment of optimism, having just finished his swing and gazing intently into the distance to track the ball’s flight. His posture suggests a confident expectation of a long drive. However, the caddy’s hand gesture shows he’s the only one who knows the ball never left the tee. The contrast between the golfer’s hopeful expression and the caddy’s knowing gesture creates a playful and relatable scene.
This Crown Ducal piece is a testament to the brand’s commitment to quality. The plate is in exceptional condition, free from chips or cracks. The embossed design and vibrant colors showcase the meticulous craftsmanship of the era. The “Crown Ducal | Florentine | England” stamp on the back, along with the letter “L,” further authenticates the plate’s origin. In addition, it identifies it as part of the scarce Type 224 Florentine collection.
This vintage plate is a pre-owned treasure, appearing as if it has never been used. It offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of history while adding a touch of character to your home decor.
