Please note that items are usually dispatched within 7 working days of cleared payment, generally on the TUESDAY following. If this constitutes a problem for you, please either don't bid or else let me know via the Ebay messaging facility (not email) and I will do my best to help. Please don't mark me down on dispatch time as I can only post once a week! I do not inflate postage charges - I charge at estimated cost plus £1 towards expense of bubble wrap and new, double-walled boxes. Overseas packages under 2kgs are posted using ISF Registered Airmail - this costs me £3.50 on top of the normal airmail price but it is worth the extra for safety. Please take a moment to read my terms. Thank you!
FINE QUALITY, HAND-PAINTED & SIGNED PORCELAIN CABINET PLATE, MADE IN ENGLAND, BY ROYAL WORCESTER. THE ARTIST IS THE HIGHLY COLLECTABLE LEIGHTON MAYBURY.
THE FINE CENTRAL PAINTING DEPICTS TWO GAME BIRDS (A COCK AND HEN PHEASANT) IN A NATURALISTIC SETTING.
THIS SUPERB PLATE IS FULLY MARKED AND DATES TO 1954. IT MEASURES 9 1/4 INCHES IN DIAMETER.
THE OVERALL CONDITION IS EXCELLENT, WITH NO CHIPS, CRACKS, HAIRLINES, CRAZING OR RESTORATION.
PAYMENT: PAYPAL, credit/debit card (via PAYPAL), UK personal cheque or postal order. If postal orders are crossed, they can't be cashed immediately and must be paid into a bank. PLEASE NOTE THAT I DO NOT ACCEPT ANY MONEY ORDERS.
UK POSTAGE: All shipping is via some form of Registered Post. All items are securely packed. UK Postage is via First Class Recorded or Special Delivery. Recorded items are insured only up to £34 in value. Please use Special Delivery option for more valuable items. Insurance up to £500 is included with Special Delivery price.
PLEASE NOTE THAT SPECIAL DELIVERY DOES NOT MEAN NEXT DAY DELIVERY - THIS POSTAL METHOD IS USED BECAUSE OF THE LEVEL OF INSURANCE AVAILABLE FOR ANTIQUE ITEMS, NOT FOR SPEED OF RECEIPT. Items are usually dispatched within 5 days of cleared payment, generally on the TUESDAY following. If you do not agree with these terms, or with the P&P price quoted, please do not bid on the auction.
INTERNATIONAL POSTAGE:I will post worldwide, using International Signed For (Airmail), Airsure or COURIER (for heavier items). I will not post by Surface or unregistered Airmail, please don't ask! Via Airsure or ISF, items are covered only up to £34 in value. Further insurance is optional @ £2 extra. This covers up to £500 (£250 to certain destinations) in market value. I cannot be held responsible for loss or damage to uninsured items. I use large bubble and strong boxes to pack. PLEASE NOTE: COURIERED packages of ceramics/glass/ antiques cannot at present be insured for damage.
I use large bubble & new sturdy, double-walled boxes to pack, which may be heavier than normal boxes (and therefore a bit more costly more to ship), but offer a much greater degree of protection for fragile items. Please be assured that I make every effort to pack items very securely, but I cannot be held responsible for items negligently damaged by the postal system. I will, of course, offer every assistance in any claims for compensation from Royal Mail.
