This is a \u003cstrong\u003eShelley England\u003c\/strong\u003e piece — one of Britain's most celebrated fine bone china makers, and a name that collectors actually get excited about. Produced around 1930, this shell-shaped trinket tray is hand-painted with a riot of orange poppies, blue cornflowers, red berries and trailing greenery on a creamy white ground, all framed by a scalloped edge with a red rim and the most satisfying pale sage green border you've ever seen.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe ribbed shell form gives it wonderful tactile texture — you can feel every ridge. It's the kind of piece that sits on your dressing table or kitchen shelf and makes everything around it look slightly less interesting by comparison. The backstamp on the base reads \u003cem\u003e\"The New China, Shelley, England\"\u003c\/em\u003e — which dates it to the early 1930s Shelley era, right when they were doing their most characterful work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt 11.5 x 11 cm it's the perfect size for rings, trinkets, a single olive, or just looking beautiful doing nothing at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShelley England, c.1930\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShell-shaped trinket \/ pin tray\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-painted floral decoration: poppies, cornflowers, berries\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScalloped edge with red rim and sage green border\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 11.5 x 11 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 77 grams\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBackstamp: \"The New China, Shelley, England\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: excellent vintage condition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWARNING:\u003c\/strong\u003e This tray is so pretty that anything you place on it will immediately feel more important.
