Figure 56  Dogwood bread-and-butter plate, Taylor, Smith & Taylor, Chester, West Virginia, 1933–1950. Whiteware. D. 6 1/2". Marks: None. (Courtesy, Clark Taggart Collection.) This plate is in the Marvel shape. Thorley’s Dogwood decoration was produced in monochrome, and, in later years, hand-colored highlights were added, giving the effect of a new pattern. Found in Thorley’s studio, this is probably a trial piece for the polychrome concept.
