English Bone China by Sara Smith

Sara Smith

Summer’s on the way and so are our new colours!

While we can’t guarantee the weather we can promise this year’s collection will include its own ray of sunshine… The vintage-inspired shapes, intricate designs and generous proportions will remain, but the colours for 2013 are lighter and brighter. And there’s yellow! We’ll bring you some new images as soon as the first batch is out of the kiln – until then here’s a clue…or four.

While you wait, here’s the story so far.

This is a new edition of English Bone China, made in Stoke-on-Trent, birthplace of the most beautiful ceramics in the world. Manufactured by hand and finished in gold, we’re proud to say that unlike the most famous names in the business these are Made in England. And because we love tea (and coffee…) so much, they’re big. Each cup holds half a pint – the same amount as a good-sized mug. Here’s a reminder of last year’s collection – but remember 2013 colours are all new and there have been a few other tweaks too!

Our new range…

…includes four colours, each with a different design. They look great on their own and fabulous together. Each cup and saucer comes in a beautiful jet black box with our gold stamp on top to let everyone know this Bone China is Made in England.

Bone China because...

…while it looks and feels delicate part of its beauty is its incredible strength. It may appear fragile but it isn’t. It can handle being handled! And talking of handles, yes you will be able to get your fingers through these ones. The cups have a capacity of 300mls or around half a pint – the same as a good sized mug.
