Royal Albert Old Country Roses Bone China Set

Description of the Set
This is a set of Royal Albert bone china in the iconic Old Country Roses pattern. The collection includes:

  • 7 complete place settings (dinner plate, salad plate, dessert plate, soup bowl, teacup, and saucer).
  • 2 serving plates.
  • 1 serving bowl.
  • 1 set of salt and pepper shakers.
  • 1 miniature tea set (teapot, 2 teacups with saucers, serving plate, cream holder, and sugar holder).

The pieces are decorated with the Old Country Roses design—vibrant roses in red, yellow, and pink hues, with 22-carat gold accents on the rims. The set is in excellent condition and dates back to approximately 1962, based on the marking on the bottom of the china.

Historical Background
The Old Country Roses pattern was introduced by Royal Albert in 1962 and is one of the best-selling bone china patterns in the world. Made in England, it represents the epitome of English tableware, combining elegance and practicality. The hallmark on the bottom indicates the set's authenticity and production period.

Condition
The set appears to be in excellent condition, with no visible chips, cracks, or wear on the gold accents. This condition is crucial for maintaining or increasing the value of vintage china.

Potential Value
The value of a Royal Albert Old Country Roses set depends on the condition, completeness, and whether it is vintage or still in production. Considering the set is vintage (marked 1962) and in excellent condition:

  • Individual place settings: $50–$70 each.
  • Serving pieces: $50–$150 each (depending on size and rarity).
  • Miniature tea set: $100–$200.
  • Complete set: Approximately $1,000–$1,500, depending on the buyer and market demand.

The inclusion of a miniature tea set adds unique charm and value to the collection.

Recommendation
To confirm and refine the valuation:

  1. Seek an in-person appraisal from a professional specializing in antique and vintage china.
  2. If selling, consider listing with a reputable auction house or specialty marketplace such as Replacements.com or eBay.
  3. Document the condition with detailed photos for potential buyers.
