The white china is hand-painted in gilt with acorns and oak leaves, a motif that's been a favourite in English decorative china for generations, likely for the obvious reason: oak was practically shorthand for strength and Englishness long before anyone put it on a teacup.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCoalport built its reputation on exactly this kind of fine bone china, and the gilding here does real work rather than just decorating — laid on with the kind of precision that holds up under close inspection, not just from across a room.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt suits a dressing table as easily as a mantelpiece, holding jewellery or trinkets while looking entirely capable of holding nothing at all and still earning its place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCondition notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGood vintage condition. Some wear to gilt, mostly to the internal rim; repair to the inner rim of the lid (not visible from outside).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rita's Bazaar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54035596706125,"sku":"1904","price":50.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0975\/4191\/4957\/files\/12-20220909_192721-PhotoRoom_594a38f8-dbf7-41ce-937e-516c1dc99324.webp?v=1780945930","url":"https:\/\/ritasbazaar.co.uk\/products\/coalport-fine-bone-china-large-box-hand-painted-with-gilt-acorns-and-oak-leaves","provider":"Rita’s Bazaar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
