From My Grandmother's Kitchen


Johnson Bros Connaught Platter
A few years ago, my mother passed along a Johnson Bros. serving platter from my Gran's first set of dishes. Made in England, and most likely purchased in the early 1930's, the colours and gold trim are still bright. I thought the pattern was "Pareek", but after some research, I discovered it's actually called "Connaught". You can see why I was confused (click on photo to enlarge):
