“Birmingham not as shit as you've heard”

A modest civic endorsement for Britain’s chronically under-marketed second city. No grand claims, no inspirational skyline montage, just Birmingham calmly clearing the remarkably low bar set by people who once changed trains at New Street and have considered themselves experts ever since.

For proud Brummies, homesick Midlanders, reluctant converts and anyone forever defending Birmingham to people who haven’t actually been there. A floral little slice of local pride that works beautifully on a shelf, gallery wall or directly beneath a framed photograph of the Floozie.

Details
• Genuine pre-loved vintage china plate
• Approx. 16 cm diameter
• Plate stand included
• Decorative use only
• Hand wash only – do not soak

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.

Much like Birmingham, it is best judged as a whole rather than by one slightly dodgy bit.

Vintage finds, bad language and whatever fresh nonsense occurred to me that morning.

Treat gently. Hand wash where appropriate. Some things are irreplaceable, unlike your ex.

Details

Professionally inappropriate. Socially questionable. Surprisingly well made.
