Vintage Royal Albert "Old Country Roses" Miniature Tea Set with Original Presentation Box - 9-Piece Complete Mini Tea Service
Indulge in the quintessential charm of English tea time — distilled into the most darling, petite proportions.
This exquisite vintage Royal Albert “Old Country Roses” miniature tea set features the world-renowned pattern celebrated for its rich clusters of deep red, pink, and yellow roses edged in brilliant 22k gold gilding. Unlike standard smooth porcelain miniatures, this particular collection features a stunning crisp white basketweave moulded texture on the body of the hollowware, beautifully framing the classic rose medallions.
Nestled perfectly in its original vibrant rose-printed satin-lined presentation hat box, this complete 9-piece service is an absolute dream for Royal Albert collectors, high-tea enthusiasts, or anyone curating a romantic classic cottage aesthetic — an enchanting vignette on a shelf, secretary desk, or tiered tray.
