Description from the seller
A magnificent and highly collectible set of 12 “Old Country Roses” side plates by Royal Albert, one of the most celebrated and internationally admired English bone china patterns ever created.
Introduced in 1962, the iconic Old Country Roses design became a symbol of classic English tea culture and refined table elegance. Even today, it remains one of Royal Albert’s most beloved and special creations, treasured by collectors around the world for its timeless beauty and unmistakable English charm.
Each plate is beautifully adorned with vibrant clusters of deep red, pink, and golden yellow roses, framed by luxurious hand-applied gold gilding along the gracefully scalloped edges. The rich floral decoration combined with the luminous fine bone china gives these pieces an exceptionally elegant and distinguished appearance.
Expertly crafted in England, these plates are perfect for serving cakes, pastries, desserts, and afternoon tea accompaniments, while also making a stunning display set for collectors of fine English china. They are equally beautiful as decorative cabinet pieces or vintage interior display items, bringing warmth, luxury, and traditional English charm into any setting.
Their delicate yet richly decorative design reflects the exceptional craftsmanship and artistry for which Royal Albert is world renowned. This is a truly special set that captures the romance and sophistication of classic English tableware.
Dimensions:
• Approx. 16 cm diameter each
Condition:
Good vintage condition with age-related signs of use and minor wear to the gilding in places, consistent with age and careful use. The set presents beautifully overall with no major chips or cracks observed.
A timeless and elegant collection piece for admirers of English bone china and the iconic Old Country Roses pattern.
