Made sometime between 1934 and 1939, this lovely set was made by Aynsley in England. The set is comprised of a small teapot, creamer and sugar as well as a cup and saucer. Great little tea set for 1. All pieces are light gray in color and feature a swirled texture to their bodies.
All handles are accented in pink. Please note that the teapot is small and meant for 1 person - it holds around 1 to 1-1/2 cups of liquid. Please compare the size of the pot to the creamer/sugar bowl. The handles on the teapot and creamer are very ornate. All pieces are in good antique condition with no chips or cracks.Fine crazing to the teapot and the creamer. The sugar bowl has some black specks on the outside (shown in the photos) that happened during the manufacturing process. Slight tea staining inside the pot but nothing that a little 40 volume developer wouldn't fix! Also some staining spots on the outside of the pot near the top that some 40 volume developer would also fix quick and easily. Teapot height with lid: 5.
Teapot length from handle to spout: 7-1/2. Creamer length from handle to spout: 4-1/2.
