Birmingham More Canals Than Venice Square Vintage Plate | Brummie Gift

“Birmingham more canals than Venice and considerably more Greggs”

All the important Birmingham statistics, now displayed on an extremely respectable scalloped vintage plate. More canals than Venice and considerably more Greggs: culture, waterways and baked goods brought together at last.

This one is for proud Brummies, exiled Midlanders, lovers of local humour and anyone prepared to defend Birmingham using both historical facts and pastry. The ornate shape makes it particularly good for a gallery wall where it can quietly educate visitors who still think Birmingham is just the Bullring.

Please note
Every plate is genuine vintage or pre-loved china, chosen individually and given a thoroughly less respectable second life. Because these pieces have existed in the world before arriving at The Crackpottery, you may find signs of age and use including light surface or utensil marks, crazing, tiny glaze imperfections, small manufacturing marks, fading or wear to gilding and decoration. These are part of the character of vintage china rather than faults, and the photographs form part of the description, so please have a good look at the actual plate you are buying.

It is old, ornate and still functioning beautifully, which is more than can be said for several bits of the road network.
