Visit Birmingham Not As Shit As You've Heard Vintage Plate | Brummie Gift
“Visit Birmingham. Not as shit as you've heard.”
The tourism campaign they were apparently too cowardly to commission. A lavish purple floral vintage plate delivering Birmingham’s strongest possible argument: ignore the reputation, come and actually have a look.
For proud Brummies, Birmingham converts, realistic tourists, homesick Midlanders and anyone who has spent years explaining that yes, there are nice bits. A piece of civic pride with the unnecessary optimism carefully removed.

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.
Birmingham has a few rough edges too. In both cases, they are part of the character.
