England | First Half of the 20th Century

An elegant English tea set by Royal Albert, featuring the beautiful Old English Rose pattern — one of the company's distinctive floral designs, characterised by richly coloured roses, delicate foliage and refined gilt detailing.

The graceful traditional forms are complemented by generous rose sprays and carefully applied gilding, creating the quintessential English character of the set. Its substantial and well-coordinated composition makes it particularly appealing both for traditional afternoon tea and as a beautifully presented collector's set.

Tea set includes:

• full-size teapot;
• 6 teacups with matching saucers;
• 6 dessert plates, 16 cm (6.3 inches);
• milk jug;
• sugar bowl.

Presented in excellent collector's condition and appears to have been very lightly used, if at all.
