Part of their celebrated botanical collections, each piece is masterfully hand-crafted with organic leaf silhouettes and high-relief floral motifs. The vibrant apple green glaze is beautifully offset by delicate pink blossoms and sculptural, bark-textured handles, reflecting a whimsical yet sophisticated aesthetic. This set represents a pinnacle of 20th-century British artisanal design, perfect for hosting an elegant garden tea, a curated brunch, or as a commanding display in a traditional china cabinet.


The comprehensive service includes a lidded teapot (8.75" W x 5.25" H), a creamer (6.5" W x 4" H), a sugar bowl, a three-piece condiment set on a tray, four cups, and fifteen assorted leaf-shaped and saucer plates ranging from 5” to 7.25” wide. All pieces remain in great vintage condition, exhibiting minor scuffs and fine crazing appropriate to their age. These subtle traces of history serve as a distinguished patina that confirms their authentic heritage and adds to their storied character.
