W.S. George Fine China
This limited-edition collector plate titled “Marry Me, Scarlett!” captures one of the most emotionally charged moments in classic cinema, drawn from Gone with the Wind. Illustrated by Paul Jennis and issued in 1991 as the first issue in the Critics’ Choice series, the scene depicts Rhett Butler and Scarlett O’Hara locked in a moment of tension, romance, and dramatic resolve—the kind of charged intimacy that defines the film’s enduring legacy.
Produced by W.S. George Fine China and officially authorized by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, this plate was created as a decorative collectible, not for food use. The artwork is richly detailed and framed by a soft gold-toned rim, lending it an elegant presentation suitable for display in a study, parlor, or curated vignette. The backstamp confirms its licensed status and notes that the edition was strictly limited to a maximum of 150 firing days, enhancing its appeal to film and pop-culture collectors.
Measuring approximately 8 inches in diameter and weighing just under 1 pound, this piece balances visual impact with easy display. Whether styled on a plate stand, layered into a gallery wall, or paired with Regency-inspired décor, it brings narrative depth and Old Hollywood drama to Scarlet’s Regency House—a reminder that romance has always thrived on a little defiance.
