So whilst on holiday, we stumbled across a flea market in Mevagissey, so of course I had to have a look. There was a stall selling trios of china, a cup, saucer and side plate for £1.
I was quite happily going to treat myself to a set, when the stall holder said if I bought the whole 5 sets, he would throw in a teapot and sugar bowl for nothing, plus an extra saucer and plate. So I got the whole lot for a fiver - minus one cup which he said had gone missing, and I am really pleased with it all. It does mean I only have a set of five, but they do look lovely in my dresser.
It is Royal Stafford Bone China in the 'Roses to Remember' design and I just love it. Very Chintzy, but great!
Now I just have to have some guests for tea and cake.....

Oh its so beautiful, I'll be around tomorrow for a drink :P but you maybe looking for this set later ;). Its the only thing I haven't bought yet is a tea set but I dare not get one until I have a house since its so much easir to break.
Wow! That's really beautiful set! Oh, and I really like your second Lucy bag too! :)
What a fabulous find, lucky you. Teasets like these are a joy to use and display aren't they.
