Display: In the China Cabinet

In the China CupboardThe display at the District of Lake Country offices features pieces from our dinnerware collection. The pattern is Wood and Sons’ ‘Yuan’ design, first registered in 1916. It was created by Frederick Rhead, who copied it from a Chinese plate in the British Museum. The dishes were produced from 1916 to the 1980s and were Wood and Sons’ most successful pattern. Included in the display are a teapot, jug, creamer, and lidded sugar bowl in the famous hexagonal shape, considered one of Wood’s most elegant creations.
