ITEM: Display Plate

NOTES: St Ives is a seaside town, in Cornwall, in the far south west tail of England. The small plate depicts a “Lucky Pisky”, a “pisky” being a fairy. He says “I’m from dear ol Cornwall for’ee m’dear”. I assume the pisky is saying he’s from Cornwall forever. I’m not sure if that’s lucky or not but he seems to be happy with the statement.
