Sunflowers on bone china — warm, generous, a little unexpected. This Royal Ascot cup pairs full sunflower blooms with yellow daisies, a summer garden caught in porcelain and given a ruffled gold rim that lifts the whole thing into something refined.
Royal Ascot was a mid-century English bone china maker whose retired patterns are now collected as much for their charm as their quality. The ruffled gold rim on both cup and saucer, with additional gilding at the cup's base and handle, is the quiet finishing touch that sets Royal Ascot apart.
A cheerful piece for a summer table, a fall display, or a gift for someone who loves warmth and brightness in their home. Wonderful for a birthday, housewarming, or as a seasonal treat for yourself.
