Upcycled stoneware fine bone china plate with vintage illustrations.

The plate has butterflies cut out from vintage flower decals and finish with a modern touch.

The plate is an upcycled plate which has never been used before so it comes in mint condition.

Made with high temperature resistant inks which have been fired to a very high temperature in a kiln to around 1550 to 1600 degrees F. The colors melt and fuse with the china which makes them last forever.

The actual image on the plate is permanent.

Highly resistant to chemicals, paints, wear and tear as well as sunlight. In fact, they will never fade, and the only way to damage the image is to damage the plate.

The high temperature matures the colors and melts and fuses the colors to the ware for permanence.

The size of the frame is 12cm in diameter.

Bone China is porcelaneous body that contains calcium carbonate. This gives the ware strength and whitens it. One difference between porcelain and bone china is the whiteness of bone china.True bone china is almost snow-white. Another is the translucence of bone china: holding it to a light with your hand behind the china should reveal the shadow of your hand. Porcelain will not do so. Bone china was invented in England in the late eighteenth century, and was apparently superior in strength, translucency, thinness, and whiteness to the porcelain then being produced in Europe.If you compare bone china with all other types of porcelain you will notice the difference immediately. The body of most porcelain has an off-white greyish cast, except for some American china which is ivory colored. True bone china is almost snow-white. Bone China is far more expensive than porcelain as it has superior qualities mentioned above.
