ROYAL GALA 11 - Queen Elizabeth II Royal Tour of New Zealand dish 1953-54

In fond memory – just for you, for your collection or for display... we offer today a very collectable Tunstall bowl commemorating the first visit to New Zealand by HM Queen Elizabeth II and her husband RHR The Duke of Edinburgh.

Please check the photos for details, displaying the young Queen in that highly decorated bowl with its all-over gilt floral pattern . This attractive dish is being offered in a used vintage condition, sadly there is a chip at the rim as shown and a tiny one underneath the edge, not visible in the photos. Still, we have reduced the reserve accordingly.

This stunning little dish measures 14 cm across (16 cm diagonally). At its base it shows two stamps, firstly the traditional stamp of H&K Tunstall, one of England's leading china manufacturers in the good old days, located in Stoke-on-Trent, the heartland of England's china production. This stamp was overprinted in gold as follows:

ROYAL TOUR OF NEW ZELAND H.M. QUEEN ELIZABETH II AND H.R.H. THE DUKE OF EDINBURGH 1953 - 4

Now retrieved from the back of the garage this rare beauty can be yours soon.
