Striking PARAGON ‘Single Rose within a Golden Yellow Bowl’Blue Tea Cup and Saucer-Double Warrant Circa 1936-1952 as the double warrants indicate”By appointment to HM The Queen and HM Queen Mary ” Very pretty! This is a stunning Paragon cup and saucer featuring a gorgeous blue exterior, with a single rose depicted within a luminous, golden yellow bowl, as a complement to the soft blue. Footing and handle are white. This set would make a beautiful addition for the new collector or one just beginning. Condition : Excellent condition. No chips, cracks, or crazing. Gold trim in tact. Nice ping! Gorgeous for cabinet display, and a real beauty to admire. All pieces are from my personal collection I’ve had for many years. The Paragon name has a history with the Royal Family, who have awarded the company royal warrants of appointment beginning in 1933 by H.M. Queen Mary to 1963, when the warrant was lastly reissued. Royal Warrants were issued to companies who regularly supplied Queen Mary, the Queen Mother and Queen Elizabeth with fine china. The Paragon name evolved from the famous Star China Company, who began using the name in 1903. The originators were Herbert James Aynsley (son of John Aynsley who founded John Aynsley & Sons), John Gerrard Aynsley and William Illingworth. In 1920 Paragon China became The Paragon China Company.
