This is a lovely set of FOUR handled soup bowls and saucers designed by Susie Cooper (1902 - 1995).
On offer as one lot is the all the bowls & saucers in my photograph (which works out about a bargain £15 each).
The quirky Art Deco shape of the bowls is the Kestrel Shape - which was first introduced by Cooper in the 1930s - but continued in production up until the 1960s.
The pattern is called BRACKEN.
Items of this shape and decorated with this stylish pattern are certainly rarer.
The pattern features a bold mid-century decoration of olive and mustard spikey woodland ferns leaves - with little rust coloured dots around the foliage.
You hardly ever see pieces with this design on them - so a great opportunity here to build up missing parts for your collection.
I have a number of other pieces on offer in my store: postal discounts would, of course, apply on request.
Dimensions - the bowls are 4 ½ inches in diameter at the top and the saucers are 6 ½ inches.
Pattern Number 2290 - which I believe was introduced in the early 1950s.
All pieces in pretty good condition for pieces of tableware nearly 70 years old - no chips, cracks or nasty crazing of the glaze - which you often find on these pieces.
