Royal Crown Derby “Red Aves” Extensive Dinner & Tea Service — 64 Pieces
An exceptional and highly complete Royal Crown Derby service in the iconic Red Aves pattern, produced in fine English bone china and assembled here in an unusually comprehensive offering. Decorated in rich iron red with finely detailed exotic birds, flowering branches, and scrolling foliage inspired by 18th-century chinoiserie, each piece is finished with delicate gilt accents along the rims and handles.
Sets of this scale are increasingly difficult to find intact. With dinner, dessert, tea, demitasse, and multiple serving forms included, this service represents a true estate-level example of Royal Crown Derby craftsmanship, suitable for formal entertaining, a fully appointed dining room, or a serious collector seeking continuity across all table settings.
