Please be aware that I can usually only post once a week.For auction here is this fabulous Wileman 6-place tea set, in the Dainty shape. The set is decorated in pattern number 9033 (Cluster of Flowers). All pieces are&n...bsp;marked to the base with the Wileman 'Foley China' mark of 1895-1910 and the set dates from around 1897.
The star-shaped pattern of chintz flowers within flower petals is in pale green and pale golden brown, giving a beautiful, subtle effect which matches the Dainty shape very well.
This 21 piece set comprises of:
6 cups - (2 1/8" high)6 saucers - (5 1/2" in diameter)6 side plates - (7 1/4" in diameter)1 cream jug - (3 1/2" high)2 large cake / bread plates - (9 1/2" in diameter)
The set is in very good antique condition with no chips, cracks or restoration. Some of the cups ring well and some don't, but I have examined them all and can't find any faults. I have been selling antique tea ware for many years, and I find that this is often the case with Dainty shape (and other cups with complex, fluted shapes).
