VINTAGE China HOLLYHOCKS Trio ROYAL GRAFTON Floral HAND PAINTED Shabby Chic Victorian and Vintage This is a gorgeous china tea trio that was crafted by A.B.Jones at the Grafton Works Pottery in Longton, Staffordshire in the 1940's, trading under the name 'Royal Grafton'. The set has a white background and is decorated with an array of hand painted flowers including blue hollyhocks, lilac and pink lupins and yellow primroses, all with green foliage. The set also features a delightful paved garden path in the foreground. The decoration affords considerable coverage with additional flowers on the back of the cup. The cup is beautifully shaped with an elegant handle that has a broad band of pale powder blue; there is a fine powder blue trim around the inner brim of the cup. The tea plate is almost square in shape. The rims of each piece are gently curved and finished with fine gold trims. The set would serve well at a vintage wedding or tea party; it would look especially good in a vintage, country cottage or shabby chic setting!!! I ALSO HAVE OTHER MATCHING ITEMS OFFER!!! A delightful example of vintage Royal Grafton tea ware !!! Dimensions - The cup measures 3" (7.5 cm) deep and just over 3" (8 cm) wide. The saucer measures 5.6" (14 cm) wide and the plate measures just over 6.6" (16.5 cm) wide. Markings - The base of each piece bears the makers backstamp.
