Vintage Fine Bone China Colclough Tea Duo – Cup & Saucer – Pattern 8656

Vintage Fine Bone China ColcloughTea Duo Cup & Saucer Pattern 8656

Colclough China was founded in 1890 by Herbert Joseph Colclough. In 1913, he was visited by King George V and Queen Mary, who gave royal license for Colclough to produce Royal Vale china. Due to the reputation that the company created for itself, the name was used well into the 1970s by successive companies.

In the early 1930s, this particular range was growing rapidly, and they started to also produce tea and dinnerware that is still sought after today. Their fine bone china bought refinement to the everyday. Colclough china features some of the most beautiful designs and patterns. Colclough became a part of the Royal Doulton Family in the 1970s. However production was discontinued, and manufacturing ceased in 1996.

 This item is a tea duo, consisting of a tea cup and saucer, beautifully decorated in an abundance of autumn flowers and leaves. The tea cup is fitted with an ornate Victorian style handle and a pedestal base, while both the items are gorgeously adorned with gold trim.
