Royal Albert - Moss Rose



Royal Albert has been dedicated to English grace, elegance, and romance since Victorian times. The story of Royal Albert stretches back over one hundred years to a small pottery business established by Thomas Wild, in Longton - one of the six towns that make up Stoke-on-Trent, "The Potteries".  Established in 1896, Royal Albert is inspired by everything English- the country garden and England's national flower, the rose.  




 This is my first Royal Albert Vintage collection, a 22 pieces Tea Set consists of 1 large Teapot, A pair of Creamer and Sugar bowl, 1 cake plate, 6 pairs of cup and Saucers and 6 side plates   Backstamp "Moss Rose @1956 Royal Albert LTD.  The design has a delicate shades of pinks, greens, blues, with a white backgound.



This beautiful cup and saucer set of  Royal Albert Moss Rose has a delicate gilded handle and gilded 
edges on the rim and handle of the cup and on the saucer. The cup is footed and has a delicate spray of moss roses on the inside of the cup as well as around the outside.




This Moss Rose pattern comes with a gorgeous 2pt TeaPot.   The TeaPot is on the Montrose Shape with 9.5" wide from spout till to the end of the handle and 7.5" tall. 

Together with the Teapot, there is a large creamer pot measure at  3 7/8" from bottom to the rim and  the width is 4 7/8" from spout to the back of the handle.  As for the open sugar bowl, the measurement is 2 3/8" tall and 4 3/8" width (across the rim).
