An Edwardian dessert service comprising eight bone china plates and a shaped serving dish, dating to 1915 under pattern number 8806. The pieces are decorated with hand-painted purple floral sprays, pink rose accents, delicate blue scrollwork borders, and gilded scalloped rims. The white glazed porcelain features full makers' marks to the base and shows no signs of restoration. Each plate measures 23 cm in diameter. Ideal for display on a dining room sideboard top or for serving after-dinner treats during formal gatherings. The refined Edwardian styling complements traditional English country house interiors and adds a touch of heritage charm to any table setting.

FAQs

Edwardian Royal Crown Derby china from the early 20th century is noted for fine bone china bodies, transfer-printed or hand-painted floral motifs, delicate scrollwork, and gilded accents along the rims.

Bone china is manufactured by combining animal bone ash, feldspathic material, and kaolin, producing a translucent white body that is glazed and fired before receiving enamel and gilding decorations.

Authentic pieces feature factory backmarks incorporating the Crown logo and printed marks, along with specific pattern numbers and printed or impressed date cyphers on the underside.

Displaying porcelain plates within a glazed cabinet, on wall-mounted plate racks, or layered upon a sideboard brings refined colour and period pattern into modern dining spaces.

Wash porcelain by hand in warm water using a mild non-abrasive detergent, avoiding dishwashers and chemical cleaners that damage surface gilding.
