Product information
| DESCRIPTION | A VICTORIAN HARD PASTE PORCELAIN TEA SERVICE. It is an 8 service set and it consists of 28 pieces as follows: - 8 tea trios. - 2 cake plates. - A sugar bowl - A milk jug. The set is decorated in a floral transfer decoration with amber colouring along the edges and gilt highlighting on the extremities. There are no manufacturer's markings on any of the items. It can be seen in the image above and further images to further illustrate it follow. Please ask a question if there is anything you are unsure about. |
| CONDITION | The service is generally in good condition with normal slight rubbing of the gilt highlighting which hardly distracts from it. It is complete and the only damage is on the milk jug. This is illustrated in one of the images below. |
In the 19th century porcelain tea services were normally not produced with teapots but were used with silver, silver plated or Britannia metal teapots. It is very unlikely that this tea service ever had a teapot as part of the service. A very decorative item for display or for use on special occasions. |
