COLLECTING ENGLISH BONE CHINA CUPS AND SAUCERS


Today I thought I'd share some of my favorite
 English Bone China cups and saucers. 
 I display them in this old armoire my husband worked
removing the doors and painting shabby chic:



These are my two newest ones below - hand painted.  The one on top is a Rosina and the one below is "Carnival" Royal Albert Crown China (before 1939 with that backstamp)





On the top left is another Rosina:



 
In the back area you can see my Germany tea set 
I have shared before with the wildflowers:


 

This cup and saucer below is a Tuscan and I have two like this
 plus two others
 with gold instead of silver.

 

I am fond of Sadler teapots (like many of you) but the one to the right below is a Roslyn and the tea cup below it matches it:

  4. Good morning Bernideen,
    How lovely to see all your pretty teacups and teapots. What a fabulous cabinet you have to display them. (Many of mine are hidden away). I like the way you elevated some on the cake stands.
    It is a joy to see many old favorites.
    Happy Day, Ruthie
