A whisper of old England in your hands. Circa 1950s–1960s from England, this exquisite vintage teacup and saucer set is crafted from fine English bone china, marked Victoria beneath a delicate crown emblem and stamped C&E England in elegant gold.
Soft mint banding, warm gilded edges, and a hand-painted yellow and pink rose at the center (slight aging of color interior of cup) give it that unmistakable mid-century charm - the kind of piece that makes an ordinary afternoon feel like a ritual. Perfect for tea, display, or gifting to a fellow romantic collector.
The mark “C&E Bone China - England” comes from the long tradition of English pottery and teaware makers based in Staffordshire, the historic heart of British ceramics. C&E pieces were produced during the golden age of mid-century English tea culture, when delicate cups like this were made for afternoon tea service, wedding gifts, etc. The “Victoria” name paired with a crown emblem was often used to evoke classic British elegance - a romantic, royal-inspired branding that was very popular in the 1940s–1960s.
