Teacups, Teapots and Whatnots
Nothing speaks of Christmas more than the iconic Royal Albert Old Country Roses (OCR). The pattern of lush roses in hues of red and yellow, nestled on the soft green leaves evokes warmth and joy. The scalloped edges finished with a stippling of 22 karat gold sparkles when hit by light. It’s no wonder that it’s the best-selling pattern in the world with over 150 million pieces sold. It’s been in production since 1962 under Royal Albert’s most famous designer Harold Holdcroft. They say the most valuable is the series made from 1962-1973 as these are the years when Holdcroft was still working for the company, overlooking the production of this pattern personally. He retired in 1972. Make sure to purchase from a shop like Teacups, Teapots and Whatnots, who knows the rich history behind their products like the OCR.
