History: This pair of soup bowls features the "Marigold" pattern by renowned English ceramic designer Susie Cooper. The design includes a soft yellow rim with a delicate botanical motif of marigold flowers at the center, rendered in permanent underglaze colors. The backstamp, with its cursive “Susie Cooper England” signature and "Handpainted" notation, places the pieces in the mid-20th century. The number 2386 corresponds to the pattern code used in her catalogued designs. These bowls are a classic example of post-war British domestic ware aimed at blending art with functional tableware.
 
 
Susie Cooper's designs are particularly collectible due to her pioneering role in modern ceramics, and her tableware remains popular among collectors for its timeless forms and gentle color palettes. These bowls are in good condition with minimal wear, retaining strong clarity in both glaze and pattern. They would appeal to collectors of British pottery or fans of mid-century design.
