Portmeirion Botanic Garden Harmony Ceramic Plate

The item is a white ceramic plate, circular in shape, designed as part of the 'Botanic Garden Harmony' collection by Portmeirion. The ceramic itself appears to be of fine quality, exhibiting a smooth, glossy glaze that is uniformly applied across the surface. The primary color is a clean, bright white, typical of modern dinnerware. The back of the plate features a clear, black printed manufacturer's mark. This mark identifies the maker as 'PORTMEIRION®' and clearly states the specific collection as 'Botanic Garden Harmony'. Additionally, the mark includes care instructions, noting the item is 'dishwasher, microwave, oven and freezer safe', and provides a website 'www.portmeirion.com'. Below this, it is marked 'Made in China'. The presence of a very faint, almost ghostly, floral or botanical pattern reflection on the surface suggests that the front of the plate likely features a similar decorative motif, though it is not fully visible in the provided image. The overall condition appears excellent, with no visible chips, cracks, crazing, or significant wear marks on the visible back surface. The craftsmanship appears to be consistent with mass-produced, high-quality ceramic dinnerware from a reputable manufacturer, likely dating from the late 20th to early 21st century based on the care instructions and web address provided.
