Ideal China Ware, as it became better known, was originally designed for export to Canada (the official name was “Canadian Teaware”). The name Ideal China was to be placed on the bottom of the ware in front of the pattern number, but is usually found only on the early numbers. All numbers in this range started with “0.” Although it was originally designed for Canada, it seems that it made its way around the world, as it can be found in most countries that Shelley exported to. This is not a sub-standard pottery—it is the same standard as the Best Ware—but cheaper litho and finishes were applied to the early numbers. The first number was 051, dated February 1, 1938, and the last pattern number was 0721, dated May 11, 1966. Pattern number 051/28 is the best known number in this ware; it is the Dainty Blue pattern on the Dainty shape.
