The companion piece your tea table has been waiting for. This vintage open sugar bowl pairs effortlessly with the Montrose creamer, showcasing clusters of deep burgundy, blush pink, and warm yellow tea roses on a high-gloss bone china body.

First-quality and entirely made in England, it is just as beautiful holding sugar cubes as it is repurposed as a vanity trinket dish.

A star of the Alps 🏔️✨

This mid-century treasure journeyed from the historic workshops of Partenkirchen, Germany. Hand-carved with the “Alpine Trio”—the resilient Edelweiss, the bell-shaped Gentian, and the Alpenrose.

Beyond the intricate high-relief lid, notice the fluting along the sides and that deep, honey-toned patina that only decades of careful use can bestow.

The Midwinter Stonehenge Coffee Pot in Onyx 🤎

There is a weight and a warmth to 1970s British stoneware that modern ceramics rarely replicate. Designed by Eve Midwinter, the Stonehenge range was a departure from the delicate to the practical.

This particular piece in the ‘Onyx’ pattern features a deep, dark chocolate brown body paired with the signature speckled ‘Creation’ lid. It is architectural, honest, and perfectly balanced.

The art of the pedestal ✨

There is a quiet drama to a footed piece that instantly anchors a room. This vintage Wedgwood footed compote—or “tazza”—is a beautiful example of why Jasperware remains a timeless favourite.

The crisp white grapevine relief against that signature pale blue stoneware is a classic for a reason. Perfect for holding fresh berries on a breakfast table, petit fours for afternoon tea, or acting as a sophisticated catch-all for your favourite jewellery.

Wedgwood Spruce Green Jasperware Tray 🐚

Finding a piece in this particular Spruce Green always feels like a bit of a discovery. While we often see the lighter Sage, this deeper forest hue offers a much more grounded, moody backdrop for the crisp white scallop relief.

It’s a silhouette that feels less like a trophy and more like a permanent fixture of a well-loved home—perfect for a bedside table or an active kitchen shelf.

The perfect heirloom for a new beginning ✨

There is something so special about a gift that carries history. This vintage Wedgwood caddy spoon, featuring the iconic shell-shaped bowl and “Cupid Sharpening his Arrow” motif, is a unique Christening or milestone gift.

Finished in that signature matte pale blue Jasperware, it comes tucked in its original box—ready to be passed down through generations. A true piece of British heritage for a modern nursery or tea collection.
