Buyer's Premium:

A collection of seventeen small bone china dishes manufactured by Royal Doulton for British Airways. Each vessel is of square form with chamfered corners and a stepped rim. The white glaze is decorated with a fine gold-coloured line to the inner rim. One exterior face of each dish features a gold-coloured transfer-printed logo depicting a stylised seated Britannia holding a trident and a shield with the Union flag, set within a laurel wreath. This branding was used for British Airways premium cabin services during the late 20th century. The underside of each dish is marked with the grey Royal Doulton factory mark, including a lion rampant on a crown, circular text, and a five-pointed star denoting a corporate contract commission.
