BOTANIC GARDEN 10 INCH PEDESTAL DISH - DARK HONEYSUCKLE
Retired And Very Unusual Rare Piece - Mint And Shiny!

I am pleased to offer a Botanic Garden 10 inch pedestal dish in the Dark Honeysuckle or Periclymenum Lonicera motif. The Honeysuckle is the original darker version with orange and yellow flower petals.

This rare piece is like new and very shiny with no signs of use or wear at all. Please be sure to look below to see more photos and full description.

The pedestal dish shape also has been retired for many years, making this a very desirable Botanic Garden piece.

The Honeysuckle was introduced in 1983 as a dinner plate motif and was retired in 1999. Toward the last few years of this motif, there was also a Pale version with yellow and peach colored flowers versus the brighter pink and orange flowers present on the original flower. Insect arrangements are different on each version as well. The design was inspired by an antique 1835 botanical illustration by William Clarke in the book Moral of Flowers by Mrs. Hey.
