HISTORY:
My wife is cleaning out our "overgrown" collection of mainly English chinaware because she has quality chinaware coming out of our ears!
She has collected quite a bit of Wedgwood over the years but does prefer "old" Wedgwood and the time has come for this trio to venture out into the world and find a new home ... it is comparatively young in the world of Wedgwood's so it will adapt to a new home just fine ...
WEDGWOOD - Teacup, Saucer & Side Plate (Trio)
This advertisement allows the buyer to purchase EITHER the saucer, teacup OR side plate separately (for replacements) or, if all pieces remain available, as a complete trio - automatic discounts are applied when purchasing more than one item
We have advertised this CASCADE trio in such a manner because we frequently are requested to advertise items piece by piece, not whole sets, for replacement purposes.
If an item does not show in the "choose your piece" box, that means ... yes, you guessed it ... it has already been purchased and there are none of that item left.
Although "contemporary" all of these pieces have been made in England (NOT offshore such as in Asia, a practice other English chinamakers undertook to reduce manufacturing costs)
Wedgwood pattern: CASCADE
Translucent bone china, meaning that when held up to a light source you can easily see the shadow of your fingers through the china.
Small fictional multi-coloured flowers with Lime Green foliage and each design is interspersed with Lime Green spots.
The base colour is a pure, clean, bright White
All pieces use a swirl fluted pattern for the body, not a smooth china.
NO Gold gilding has been applied to any piece

Another pleasant trio from the "modern" era of Wedgwood that doesn't suit my wife's collection tastes these days so it is now patiently sitting in one of the china cabinets, bags packed and waiting for a new owner to take them into another loving, caring home.
