Antique Royal Doulton Kingfisher Cake Plate – Hand-Painted Bird on Bamboo, Scrolled Lug Handles, RD 679032, Fine Bone China, England 1920s

A handled cake plate (or sandwich / bread server) in early Royal Doulton bone china — wide round body with two scrolled lug handles at the rim, hand-painted in the Kingfisher pattern Royal Doulton registered in 1921. A single European kingfisher in cobalt-and-emerald gradient with bright orange breast sits on a slender bamboo branch; soft watercolour bamboo leaves and red berries drift around the rim; a quiet green trim line follows the edge — no gold, no scallop, just the Japanese-influenced quiet of early Art Deco.

The mark on the back is the green Royal Doulton lion-and-crown — the pre-1922 version of the stamp, with Royal Doulton / England before the firm added "Made in" — paired with the pattern name Kingfisher and the registered design number RD. No. 679032, the UK design registration taken out by Royal Doulton in 1921–22. The plate dates to that early production window, roughly 1922 through the 1930s — between 95 and 105 years old now, sitting at the edge of antique status.

This cake plate matches the Royal Doulton Kingfisher trio already listed in this shop — same pattern, same RD number, same era, same hand-painted execution. Together the four pieces form a complete vintage afternoon-tea setting for one: cup, saucer, side plate, and cake / sandwich server. Either piece works alone; together they reconstitute a small piece of early Royal Doulton tea service.

A piece for the Royal Doulton collector hunting the pre-1922 marks, for the kingfisher / bird-china specialist, for the Japandi or mid-century modernist interior that wants a vintage anchor, or for the host who serves Battenberg cake on something that knows what it's doing.
