Delicate lace scrollwork along the border, a single pink rose at center — Billingsley Rose on a saucer is just as lovely as on a plate, and arguably more useful.

Produced from 1924 through 1969 and hand-colored in its early years, Billingsley Rose carries slight artistic variations between pieces — in color strength, in the way the roses are arranged — that make each one quietly individual. Our saucers date to the 1940s, all bearing the old red backstamp: "Spode's Jewel, Copeland, Spode England, Reg No 70392 U.S. Pat. June 15th 1926, Spode's Billingsley Rose." Several are dated — one from January 1947, two from 1947 with the month not legible, one from July 1949; the others are 1940s but illegible. If a specific date matters to you, just ask and we'll do our best to match it. We also carry dinner plates, salad plates, and bread and butter plates in this pattern.

A lovely replacement for a set you're completing, a tea table addition, or a wall accent.

Spode was founded in Stoke-on-Trent in 1770 and later merged with Copeland, becoming one of the most enduring names in English fine china production. Billingsley Rose takes its name from the delicate rose-painting style associated with William Billingsley, an English porcelain artist celebrated for his naturalistic floral work — a technique Spode's decorators carried forward across more than four decades of production on this pattern.
