Description: | This Campden 12" single division vegetable dish was designed for Old Hall by Robert Welch. It was introduced as part of a large range of Campden dishes in 1960 and production ran very successfully for fifteen years until 1975. There were also 8.1/2" and 10" versions of it. Other similar dishes in the range were two division dishes in the same three sizes and a three division dish just in the 12" size. There were a total of 22 dishes in the range and the range as a whole won Old Hall a 'Design of the Year' award from the Council of Industrial Design in 1962. The name 'Campden' comes from Chipping Campden in Gloucestershire where Robert Welch had his studio. The backstamp on the dish reads 'Designed by R Welch' and is stamped with the 12" size.
