Royal Albert for Teacup Tuesday

P6151634

This pretty high gloss bone china teacup was made by Royal Albert in England.

P6151636The teacup is in the Victoria shape and has a pretty scalloped foot with gold trim.

P6151635The Rococo edge, dainty flowers and pastel colors are lovely. 

P6151636P6151640This is from the Sonnet Series in the Byron pattern, which was copyrighted in 1983.  The pattern was discontinued in 1994.  The other cups in the series are Chaucer, Coleridge, Milton, Tennyson and Wordsworth.

You can see many beautiful cups and saucers on Teacup Tuesday.  Just visit Artful Affirmations to see Terri’s gorgeous blog and a list of others who are also showing their wonderful teacups.
