Lovely wedding, anniversary, or a gift to yourself. Lot of 10 identical Johnson Brother's Old English China plates, made in England. These are 7 1/2 square dessert / salad / appetizer plates that feature the California Fresh Fruit pattern. The pattern is inside a white center circle surrounded by a cream border.

The rim features a clever braided rope design. These have been in the family since the late 1940s and all ten plates feature the identical pattern and all are in excellent, gently used condition.

They are clean and free of any stains, cracks or repairs. One has a teeny tiny shallow chip on the underside of the rim which I discovered by touch. It is difficult to see with the naked eye and it cannot be seen at all when the plate is sitting right side up. These plates are 80 years old, and as with most vintage china there is some light crazing.
