Details

An exceptional late Victorian English tea and coffee service, beautifully presented in its original fitted wooden presentation case with rich burgundy lining. This elegant ensemble combines the renowned craftsmanship of Elkington & Co. sterling silver with the exquisite artistry of Copeland hand-painted porcelain, creating a refined display of English decorative arts.

The sterling silver service, all by Elkington & Co., comprises:

  • 1 teapot with insulated cane-wrapped handle
  • 1 sugar bowl
  • 1 milk jug
  • 4 sterling silver teaspoons
  • 1 sterling silver stirring spoon

Accompanying the silver is a stunning four-place Copeland coffee set, dating to c.1897, featuring richly hand-painted cobalt blue and lavish gilt decoration. The set includes:

  • 4 coffee cups
  • 4 matching saucers

The striking contrast of brilliant sterling silver against the richly decorated cobalt and gilt porcelain makes this a particularly impressive and highly collectible set. The craftsmanship throughout reflects the exceptional quality for which both Elkington & Co. and Copeland were internationally celebrated during the Victorian era.

Housed in its original fitted wooden box, the service has been carefully preserved and remains in exceptional condition, with the silver retaining crisp detail and the porcelain displaying vibrant color and gilding. The presentation case further enhances both its authenticity and desirability.

A rare opportunity to acquire a complete and beautifully matched English tea and coffee service, ideal for collectors of fine silver, Victorian porcelain, or those seeking an outstanding display piece with timeless elegance.

Condition: Exceptional overall condition, complete with original fitted presentation box. Silver and porcelain present beautifully with only minimal signs of careful age-appropriate use. A superb collector’s example.
