| Object history | Designed as a cover plate, exclusively for Marco Pierre White's restaurant, The Restaurant, Hyde Park. Holdenby Designs was established by Suzanne Katkhuda and Jim Powell in 1987 to manufacture and sell Katkhuda's designs. The company was first based in the stable yard of Holdenby House, a stately home in Northamptonshire. These premises were rapidly outgrown, and at the end of 1991 the company moved to the nearby village of Brixworth. In 1993, further premises were acquired in Parsonage Street, Tunstall, Stoke-on-Trent, where white earthenware was produced. |
| Production | The blank plate made at Parsonage Street, Tunstall, but decorated at Brixworth. |
