Pink roses and multicolored blossoms scatter across creamy white porcelain, framed by elaborate gilt scrollwork and gently scalloped, gold-edged rims.

Made in England circa 1900, the saucers carry Coalport’s crowned factory mark and the retailer’s stamp of Gilman Collamore & Co., Fifth Avenue and 30th Street, New York. Their English craftsmanship and New York retail connection recall the taste for richly decorated imported porcelain that defined Gilded Age entertaining.

Subtle differences in the floral arrangements reward a closer look, while the consistent cobalt-and-gold palette brings the grouping together. Display them in a Welsh dresser or glass-front cabinet, incorporate them into a layered porcelain wall arrangement, or reunite them with compatible antique cups.

Set of six saucers; cups and display stand are not included. Each measures approximately 5.75” in diameter.

In good antique condition with wear consistent with age and use. One saucer has multiple hairline cracks, and some others show staining and loss to the gilding. Surface wear varies across the set. See less
