By the 1950s, the fawn had become one of the defining motifs of British mid-century kitsch — sweet-faced, wide-eyed, and utterly irresistible. Shaw \u0026amp; Copestake knew exactly what they were doing when they perched this little spotted deer on the lip of a tree-bark dish and sent it out into the world under the SylvaC name. Seventy-odd years later, it still stops people in their tracks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe #4293 Woodland Series Fawn Trinket Dish is one of SylvaC's most charming small pieces — the shallow basin moulded to resemble a cross-section of textured tree bark, complete with rings and knotholes along the edge, the rich pooling gloss glaze darkening dramatically into the recesses to create real depth. The resting fawn along the back lip is hand-detailed with white spots, a dark nose, and those signature large expressive eyes. A considered addition to a dressing table, bedside, or shelf vignette — equally at home holding rings, a few earrings, or simply doing nothing but looking beautiful.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnlike the earlier matte-glazed SylvaC rabbits that flooded the Australian market via post-war immigration, the Woodland Series gloss finish is noticeably harder to find locally in pristine condition. The fawn's ears are the first thing to go — on this example, they're fully intact.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e SylvaC \/ Shaw \u0026amp; Copestake Ltd., Sylvan Works, Longton, Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, England\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePattern:\u003c\/strong\u003e Woodland Series — Fawn and Log\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMould Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e #4293\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEra:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mid-Century; c.1950s–1960s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11 cm long × 10 cm wide × 5.5 cm tall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Relief-moulded earthenware, high-gloss glaze\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColourway:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deep olive\/bark-brown basin; pale peach-tan spotted fawn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBackstamp:\u003c\/strong\u003e SylvaC \/ Made in England \/ 4293 (impressed)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e England\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eExcellent.
