This beautiful, Bone china Coffee/Tea set for 8 people is made by Royal Crown Derby in their famous Mikado collection. The Mikado pattern was designed in 1894 by Royal Crown Derby’s art director, Thomas Amos Reed. It was inspired by rice paper drawings that he had obtained in the Far East. The original illustrations formed the basis of the scenes. With the exception of a few of the larger pieces, which are decorated with the complete design, all of the smaller items are decorated with a different chapter of the story. Variations of the legend associated with the pattern are many. Indeed, little imagination is needed to weave a tale with such romantic subjects as’Wandering Sad-Eyed Lover’,’The Tall Standing Pagodas of the Orient’,’The Flight of Cranes’, all set against a backdrop or rivers, mountains and delicate leaf tracery. The set is properly marked with Royal Crown Derby backstamp and the cipher. Different pieces may have different mark and ciphers. This amazing set is both Ageless and Timeless. 8 (eight) Coffee/Teacups – approx. 3″ in diameter at the rim and 2 3/8″ tall. 8 (eight) Saucer for the cups – approx. 5 1/2 in diameter. 1 (one) Coffee/tea pot – 9″ from the spout to the handle and 5 1/2″ tall to the tip of the lid. 1 (one) Creamer Jug – 2 7/8 tall to the tip of the spout. 1 (One) Sugar Bowl – 5 3/4″ from handle to handle and 3 1/2″ tall to the end of the lid. The set is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, or repairs. It is possible to have some utensils marks and/or minor crazing that is consistent with the age. Exceptional collector’s piece. Would have a place in any china collection. This is a piece of history that everyone will be proud to have. Be sure to add me to your. We will open an unpaid case after four days.
