*[Potter, Beatrix]. A complete Peter Rabbit tea service, Stoke-on-Trent: Grimwades, circa 1922, comprising a tea pot with lid (height 9cm/3.5ins), a cream jug (height 5.5cm/2.25ins), a sugar basin (height 4cm/1.5ins), four tea cups (height 5cm/2ins), four saucers (diameter 11.5cm/4.5ins), four tea plates (diameter 10.5cm/4ins), and two cake plates (diameter 15.5cm/6ins), each with a colour lithographed scene from The Tale of Peter Rabbit (a little rubbed in places), and gilt rims and handles (very occasional minor rubbing), each with maker's mark on base, one saucer with very tiny chip under rim, two cups with hairline crack (one 12mm, one 5mm) Extremely rare complete set of Beatrix Potter nursery china, the very first to be produced. Miss Potter sanctioned production of the set in 1917, but Grimwades didn't begin manufacturing until 1922, blaming war-time shortages of materials and staff. Even incomplete sets are difficult to find, given the limited production of the set and its fragile nature. Beatrix Potter was said to be very pleased with the set and ordered some for Christmas presents. (Louise Irvine, editor, John Beswick & Royal Albert Beatrix Potter Figures & Giftware, 1996, pages 10 & 83.) (17)
