English Art Deco Royal Commemorative Porcelain Coronation Set
About the Item
This collection of English commemorative ware consists of a 1937 Edward VIII coronation tea set, two 1837 Edward VIII coronation plates, a 1937 Edward VIII coronation flute, and a 1939 plate commemorating George VI and Queen Elizabeth's trip to the United States and Canada.
The Coronation tea set consists of a teapot, two cups, each with a saucer, a creamer and a coupe-shaped, open sugar bowl. The teapot, cups, creamer, and sugar bowl all feature Edward VIII's coronation portrait on the front and his seal on the back. The teapot, creamer, and sugar bowl are each circumscribed with gold trim and feature a delightful cracklature. Each piece is stamped "Made in England" and the teapot is also stamped "Lancasters LTD".
The two conical-shaped teacups have handles which are decorated with a fine, royal blue line. The rim of each teacup, as well as their saucers, are also adorned with royal blue lines. Each piece is stamped "Made in England".
The scalloped edged Edward VIII coronation plate offers a 24-karat gold trim and features Edward VIII's coronation portrait and seal, the back is stamped "L&Sons LTD". The second coronation plate is square with scalloped corners. In the center of the plate is a grisaille portrait of Edward VIII inside a blue cartouche. Undulating ribbons decorate the four edges of the plate, each inscribed with "Dieu Et Mon Droit". The back is stamped "Wedgwood".
The commemorative conical shaped flute has eight rows of tapered v-grooves at its base. On the front of the glass, "Crowned May 12TH, 1937" is etched along with Edward VIII's coronation crown, his initials are etched on the back.
The semi-scalloped edged plate- which commemorates George VI and Queen Elizabeth's visit to the United States and Canada- is executed in a rich cream color and decorated with a sky blue band tracing its rim. A thicker blue band encircles a central portrait of George VI and Queen Elizabeth along with images of the United States and Canada's Capitol buildings, as well as the flags of America, Great Britain and Canada. Beneath the portrait is text describing the details of the visit surrounded by a garland of maple leaves. The back of the plate is stamped "Royal Staffordshire Pottery".
