Beautiful antique English bone china tea trio bearing the early DAISY crown backstamp and showing strong stylistic links to late Victorian tea ware production, dating from the Victorian / early Edwardian period, circa 1890–1910.
This elegant and highly decorative trio includes:
* Tea cup * Saucer * Tea plate
The set features a deeply moulded scalloped shape with rich sepia floral decoration, dramatic dark panels and hand-applied gold gilt detailing throughout.
The form, porcelain body and early DAISY crown mark strongly resemble fine English tea ware produced during the late Victorian era. The beautiful moulded borders, floral decoration and original gilding create an exceptionally decorative display piece.
A beautiful example of antique English tea ware with all the characteristics collectors look for:
Remarkably, this tea trio remains very well preserved for a piece that is over 100 years old.
Condition: Very good antique condition. No chips, cracks or repairs noted. Light age-related wear and minor rubbing to the gilding consistent with careful use and age.
Approximate measurements:
* Tea Plate: approx. 20 cm * Saucer: approx. 14 cm * Cup diameter: approx. 9 cm * Cup height: approx. 6 cm
A beautiful and increasingly difficult-to-find antique DAISY tea trio that would make a wonderful addition to any collection of Victorian and Edwardian English bone china.
