VINTAGE PICKARD CHINA GOLD ENCRUSTED PHEASANT PLATE SIGNED E. CHALLINOR With handLes. Excellent CONDITION. Some light wear marks (see pics) 10 inch The maker's mark dates this piece between 1925-1930. The artist is Edward Challinor. EdwardChallinor was one of the most notable of Pickard artists. Challinor was a descendent from a family of Stafford shire potters, beginning with his grandfather, Edward, who began making transfer-printed earthenware in 1853 under the name of E. Challinor & Co. Edward S. Challinor was born in 1877. He visited the family pottery many times as a youngster and is said to have begun his apprenticeship at age seventeen. He served as an apprentice with the Royal Doulton Potteries in Burslem. He also studied at the Newcastle School of Arts in Staffordshire which was an auxiliary of the South Kensington School of Art in London. In 1903 he came to America to seek employment. Challinor found work in Chicago working for Pickard. Challinor was not only an artist on china but he was also an accomplished musician, singer, and actor. It is believed that Challinor mixed his own colors, and that he never passed the secret on to others, and that the formulas died with him.
