Description from the seller
Royal Albert – “Old Country Roses” – Fine Bone China – Gilded Serving Platters – England – Set of 4
A beautifully elegant and highly recognisable set from Royal Albert’s iconic “Old Country Roses” collection — one of the most celebrated and best-selling English bone china patterns ever produced.
Introduced in 1962, Old Country Roses has become a symbol of classic English luxury, admired worldwide for its rich composition of deep red, pink, and golden yellow roses, finished with real gold gilding, kiln-fired for durability. The design captures a timeless romantic aesthetic that remains as desirable today as it was at its introduction.
Each piece in this set is crafted in fine English bone china, offering exceptional translucency, delicacy, and strength. The softly sculpted edges combined with luminous gilded borders create a refined and unmistakably luxurious presentation.
This set includes a beautiful combination of oval and rectangular serving platters, making it both versatile and visually striking — ideal for elegant table presentation or decorative display.
