A 44-piece earthenware dinner and tea service produced by the International China Co. under the Tableworks brand. Each piece is decorated with the naturalistic Ivy pattern, featuring transfer-printed variegated green ivy leaves and delicate brown tendrils against a cream-coloured ground. The service is characterised by its distinctive spiral-fluted bodies and textured, scalloped rims finished with a green border. The base of the pieces bears a printed black circular mark reading Inter-national TM, below which is TABLEWORKS ®. The marks further include the text ©INTERNATIONAL CHINA CO., DISHWASHER & MICROWAVE SAFE, and MADE IN ENGLAND. This extensive group includes two large oval serving platters, dinner plates, side plates, saucers, spiral-fluted mugs, a cream jug, an open sugar bowl, and a small cereal bowl.
