Amazon.com Review

The Royal Albert Old Country Roses dinnerware, introduced in 1962, combines intense color and graceful lines for a highly romantic mood. An elegant take on the pattern, this 6-1/2-ounce teacup is both dainty and vibrant. It is perfect for a cozy cup of tea by yourself or a festive gathering with friends. Crafted from pristine white bone china, the cup is bordered with pink and gold rose bouquets--a large one on the exterior and a smaller one inside. Its sides are fluted and it is trimmed in 22-carat gold at the foot, base, rim, and handle. Measuring 3-1/2 inches in diameter, the cup hold 6-1/2 ounces. For best results, Royal Albert recommends washing it by hand. --Emily Bedard

Product Description

Royal Albert's "Old Country Roses" tableware design is one of the most popular bone china patterns of all time. It has sold over 150 million pieces since it was introduced in 1962. The success of Royal Albert, founded in 1896, billows from its quintessentially English grace and elegance and its sense of timeless, romantic fantasy. These qualities are reflected through the delicate floral decoration and flowing curves.

My original Royal Albert pieces were made in England. This new piece was made in Indonesia. Whereas The pieces look good on the initial cursory inspection, this cup teaters slightly on the saucer. However, the ones from England were flawless. I will note that the English pieces were manufactured in 1962. Whether it's the place of manufacture or modern methods versus the method 40 years ago, I couldn't say. If you aren't put off by the slight lacking in precision, the new pieces should do alright by you. If you want perfection, hold out for the old British made ones.

Teacup arrived in excellent shape. The older version had a less defined gold edge. This one looks more "dishwasher safe."
