A charming and collectible set of four green transfer printed cups and saucers in the beloved "English Scenery" pattern by Enoch Wood & Sons — one of the most recognized and warmly appreciated patterns in the entire canon of English transferware and a perennial favorite among collectors of vintage English ceramics and country cottage tableware.
The "English Scenery" pattern depicts the idyllic rural English landscape in the romantic pastoral tradition — peaceful countryside scenes rendered in the soft, warm green transfer that gives this pattern its distinctive and immediately recognizable character. Green transferware of this quality and pattern recognition is among the most decoratively versatile of all vintage English ceramics, complementing both traditional country interiors and more eclectic modern settings with equal ease and charm.
The set of four presents consistently and cohesively as a group — perfectly suited for an intimate afternoon tea, displayed on a dresser or open shelf, or incorporated into a larger collection of English transferware. At 5½ inches across the saucers are a generous and practical size, and the cups are well proportioned and comfortable in the hand.
