Royal Doulton Tennyson 9-Inch Accent Plate

Evoking a regal sensibility of traditional quality, the Tennyson accent plate presents celebrated style at a formal table. Named after the literary legend, these distinguished nine-inch dishes serve salads, sides, and desserts by framing food tastefully. Bordered with a wide band of rococo scrollwork in elaborate leafy motifs, the design appears on refined rims with other plates in the pattern. The rich ornamentation in deep burgundy is feathered with 22-karat gold trim on lustrous white porcelain. From the Modern Classic line by Royal Doulton, this plate complements the entire dinnerware collection, and includes a Christmas variation featuring an opulent ornament decorated in the same theme. The fine bone china is remarkably dishwasher-safe though the 22-karat gold trim prevents microwave use. Imported from England, Royal Doulton offers pattern availability up to two years from date of purchase. --Roberta Cruger (Amazon)
