History & Age
Royal Swan was a trade name used by Johnson Brothers of England. Their Historic Castles series featured famous British landmarks rendered in traditional blue transferware. The Caldicot Castle design depicts the medieval Welsh fortress located in Monmouthshire, Wales. These bowls were likely produced during the 1950s through early 1970s and remain popular with collectors of English transferware and cottage-style décor. A lovely addition to a blue and white collection or a charming gift for the history lover.
