Description from the seller
An exceptionally beautiful and highly collectible “Old Country Roses” tea and serving collection by Royal Albert, crafted in fine English bone china and decorated in one of the most iconic and treasured floral patterns ever produced.
Introduced in 1962, Old Country Roses quickly became a symbol of refined English elegance and luxurious afternoon tea tradition. Even decades later, it remains one of Royal Albert’s most admired and special creations, beloved worldwide for its timeless beauty, romantic floral decoration, and unmistakable English charm.
This elegant collection is richly adorned with magnificent clusters of deep crimson, pink, and golden yellow roses, gracefully framed by radiant hand-applied gold gilding along the beautifully scalloped edges. The luminous fine bone china combined with the lavish floral decoration gives every piece an atmosphere of sophistication, warmth, and classic vintage luxury.
The set includes:
• 1 elegant oval serving platter
• 3 trios (teacup, saucer, and side plate)
• Sugar bowl with underplate
• Milk jug with underplate
• Decorative floral display plate/bowl
Expertly produced in England, this wonderful set captures the romance and refinement of traditional English tea service. The oval serving platter creates a particularly striking centrepiece for cakes, pastries, sandwiches, desserts, or elegant table presentation, while the charming decorative floral piece adds an additional touch of grace and character to the collection.
Whether used for luxurious afternoon tea gatherings, sophisticated table settings, vintage interior decoration, or displayed proudly within a fine bone china collection, this set brings timeless elegance and distinguished English craftsmanship into any setting. Every piece harmonises beautifully together, creating a truly eye-catching and refined presentation.
This is a very special collection that perfectly reflects the exceptional artistry and heritage for which Royal Albert is internationally celebrated. A timeless treasure for collectors, admirers of English tea ware, and lovers of classic vintage beauty.

24.5 cm width. (Approx)
Condition:
Good vintage condition with age-related signs of use and minor wear to the gilding in places, consistent with careful use and age. The collection presents beautifully overall and displays exceptionally well.
