Description from the seller
Royal Albert – “Old Country Roses” – Exceptional English Bone China Tea Service
An iconic representation of British refinement, this exquisite Old Country Roses tea service by Royal Albert embodies the romance and prestige of traditional English tea culture. First introduced in 1962, this celebrated pattern has become one of the most enduring and collectible designs in fine bone china.
Each piece is delicately crafted in luminous white bone china, richly adorned with blooming red and golden roses, and finished with hand-applied gold gilding that catches the light with remarkable elegance. The sculpted forms, flowing handles, and gently fluted profiles reflect a level of craftsmanship synonymous with England’s finest porcelain houses.
Set Composition:
• 3 tea cups
• 3 matching saucers
• 1 teapot with lid
• 1 milk jug
• 1 sugar bowl
A harmonious and visually striking ensemble, perfect for refined tea service or as a distinguished display piece within a curated collection.
Condition:
In good vintage condition, carefully preserved over time. One sugar bowl presents a small chip. Light, age-related wear to the gilding is visible (Pictured), adding to its authentic vintage character. No significant structural issues observed in the remaining pieces.
This set offers not only functional beauty but also a connection to a celebrated legacy of English porcelain artistry—an elegant addition for collectors, connoisseurs, or those seeking to bring a touch of timeless luxury into their home.
