The “Royal Dee” brand picnicware is from the 1960s when the Aberdeen Combworks was diversifying its product range. This example is the second version – at first the handle was moulded separately and then attached. This was found to be a weakness, so they were later moulded in one piece like this example.
See ABDMS069336 for an example of a Royal Dee saucer.
