Description: This is a really beautiful set of teacup and saucer from Shelley made in England, decorated with pink roses and red and blue flowers. It is made of bright white fine bone china, the cup is scalloped on the edges with fluted panels, in the design/shape called Dainty White. The saucer also has scalloped design impressed in the china radiating out to the scalloped edges, that reminds me of an open flower. The Dainty White pattern is the most popular Shelley pattern, and was made from 1896-1966. The handle and edge of the cup and saucer are trimmed in pink. The green backstamp was used between 1938-1966, according to shelley.co.uk. The set is in excellent condition with no chips, cracks or crazing. Very minimal wear on the saucer, when looking at the glaze at an angle to the light. There are a couple of stray small marks on the back edge of the saucer that match the color of the green backstamp. One of the pink roses on the saucer has a bit of the pink missing, looks like an incomplete transfer of the pattern from when it was made. The set looks mostly unused, probably displayed in china cabinet because it is so pretty! The diameter of the cup is 3 & 1/2 inches, is 2 & 3/8 inches tall and it holds 3/4 cup. The saucer is 5 & 1/2 inches in diameter. The bone china is so fine and thin the set only weighs about 7 ounces! Please zoom in on pictures for a loser look and see the 360 degree video. I pack with lots of bubble wrap for safe shipping and ship out quickly, within one business day, sometimes same day, and sometimes on Saturday if I can get to the post office before it closes at noon. Any questions, pleases ask and thanks for looking!!
