{"product_id":"vintage-royal-stafford-bird-series-cup-and-saucer","title":"Vintage Royal Stafford Bird Series Cup and Saucer","description":"\u003cp\u003eColourful birds appear among trees and flowering plants on this Royal Stafford cup and saucer. A black scroll border frames the landscape, while a pale pink cup exterior and gilt-trimmed handle add contrast to the decorated interiors. The scalloped saucer makes the set a distinctive choice for a display of \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/tea-and-coffee-table\"\u003etea and coffee table pieces\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe supplied identification records matching printed crest marks reading Royal Stafford, Guaranteed English Bone China, Made in England. Those marks support the manufacturer and origin, and the bird decoration is consistent with the Bird Series name used in the listing. The painted scenery gives each piece interest beyond its matching form, from small birds to blossoms set against a softer landscape. The mark style and design suggest mid-twentieth-century production, though no precise production year is established here. The current listing grades the pair Excellent and reports no chips or cracks; that remains a reported condition statement, not a guarantee based on photographs. Close inspection remains useful for rims, handle and gilt edges.
