ROUND Serving BOWL W S GEORGE Lido WHITE 296A Pink

Hello & Welcome to my auction :-)

ITEM DESCRIPTION: This beautiful ROUND VEGETABLE SERVING BOWL was made by W. S. GEORGE in the 296A PATTERN on the LIDO WHITE shape featuring a four sided straight edge with a scalloped border and gold trim.

The beautiful floral pattern features 4 clusters of delicate cascading pink flowers with light green and gray leaves. The pink flowers look like dogwood blossoms.

This piece is from a massive 100+ piece dinnerware set in this pattern that I have on eBay this week.

TRADEMARKS/UNDERSTAMPS: The underside is green ink stamped with the following:

LIDO

W. S. GEORGE

WHITE

MADE IN U.S.A.

293A

The understamp shown in the picture is from another piece which has the 193A number. I forgot to take a closeup picture of the understamp on this piece.

MEASUREMENTS: The open bowl measures 8 7/8" in diameter and is 2 1/2" deep.

CONDITION: This beautiful bowl is in excellent, barely used condition. There are no chips, lines, cracks, crazing, wear to the gold rim, or repairs. There are a few, very minor utensil marks which are barely noticeable. Wait until you see it in person - it will make a fantastic addition to your collection or to give as a memorable gift to someone who collects this pattern. This item comes from a smoke free environment.

PLEASE SEE MY AUCTIONS FOR MANY OTHER PIECES IN THIS PATTERN I HAVE ON EBAY.

~ TO SAVE ON SHIPPING ~ Please take a quick peek at my PICTURE GALLERY of other vintage WS George China and a host of other quality collectibles that I have on eBay to combine items. Just click on VIEW SELLER'S OTHER ITEMS at the top of the page in the blue Seller Information box on the right.

SHIPPING COSTS: To figure the cost of shipping prior to bidding on this item, please scroll down to the PAYMENT and SHIPPING section and insert your zip code. Please note - insurance is NOT included in this shipping amount as it is an option ($1.70 for up to $50 coverage). Insurance is recommended as I cannot be held responsible for loss or damage once your package is in transit.

A NOTE ABOUT SHIPPING: If you are like me, you want to be treated fairly with the cost of shipping. Please know actual USPS rates are based on size and your zip code for packages over 1 pound; the further away you live from Massachusetts, the higher the USPS shipping rates.

I purchase thousands of boxes of all sizes/shapes (some over $2 each), bubble envelopes, expensive bubble wrap, packing peanuts, and numerous other packing materials to ensure safe delivery of your item. Free Delivery Confirmation for your tracking & protection is provided.

Whenever possible, lower cost shipping options of First Class, Parcel Post, or Media mail is your choice and I happily combine items to further save you on shipping :-) A very minimal amount is included so I can continue to offer excellence in packing and shipping your item.

PAYMENTS: Your Personal Check, Money Order or PayPal payment is welcome.

*** I ask that the buyer respond to my eBay invoice within 3 days with payment intentions. Mailed payments must be postmarked within 5 days of the auction. Otherwise, the item will be relisted and a final value fee will be requested with appropriate feedback posted. If payment is made with a personal check, your package will not be shipped until your check clears, typically within 5-7 business days. I am shipping DAILY to ensure speedy delivery ***

RETURNS: As I have honestly done all to describe this item to the best of my ability, items are sold as described and returns are not allowed unless it was inadvertently misrepresented. Any returned item must be the same one I shipped with my invisible mark* in tact. Return shipping is at the buyer's expense with the original shipping/insurance non refundable. *Seller protection system used to protect against fraudulent scams of switching buyer's personal inferior/damaged item for the one I shipped, or trying to negotiate a lower price by claiming "not as described" after item is won. Neither of these situations will be tolerated and all abuses will be reported to eBay. Prior to bidding, please E-mail any questions.

NEGATIVE FEEDBACK/HIDDEN FEEDBACK: If you are a bidder with excessive negative feedback, or hidden feedback (feedback you chose to keep private and is not available for anyone to see), your bid will not be honored, so please do not bid.

EBAY SYSTEM FAILURE/CRASHES: If eBay crashes in any way during the last 4 hours of this auction, I reserve the right, at my discretion, to cancel the auction and relist the item. With the introduction of eBay's "Watch This" feature, many bidders are now waiting until the last day (hour or minute) to bid and this protects all interested parties. I will email all bidders to inform them of the new auction number so that all will have a fair chance to bid again when eBay is fully operational.

THANK YOU for looking at my item, and for your bid; I wish you could all win! Be sure to check out my other auctions....and you could find it too! Kathy
