Product Description:
Indulge in the timeless elegance of this Spode 'English Lavender' Teacup Trio, crafted with care and precision between World War II and the post-war period (1940s). This exquisite set features a delicate lavender-blue hue, reflecting both the refined simplicity of mid-century British design and the lingering influence of wartime restrictions. The trio includes a teacup, a saucer, and a side plate—perfect for serving your favourite brew in vintage style.
During World War II, the British pottery industry faced severe restrictions, limiting decorative elements and prioritising simple, functional designs. One of the pieces in this set bears an "A" backstamp, indicating that it was produced under these wartime regulations. The English Lavender series, known for its elegant yet unembellished monochrome finish, was a continuation of this restrained aesthetic, reflecting the transition from wartime practicality to post-war refinement.
In the years following the war, Spode’s ‘Utility’ tableware adhered to high standards of quality craftsmanship while maintaining practicality. The English Lavender collection remains a testament to this period, celebrated for its understated beauty and timeless appeal.
