Product Description
A timeless piece from one of England’s most beloved china patterns, this Royal Albert Old Country Roses sandwich tray dates between 1962 and 1974 and beautifully captures the elegance of classic English tableware. Crafted in fine bone china, the tray features the iconic Old Country Roses design — vibrant red, pink, and golden-yellow roses framed by a gently scalloped edge and rich hand-applied gold gilding.
Measuring approximately 30 cm x 17 cm, this rectangular serving tray is perfectly sized for sandwiches, petits fours, afternoon tea pastries, or as a decorative display piece. The romantic floral sprays and luminous gilded border make it equally suited for entertaining or styling in a vintage-inspired interior.
Introduced in 1962, Old Country Roses quickly became Royal Albert’s most recognisable and enduring pattern, symbolising traditional English afternoon tea culture. Early examples such as this remain highly collectable, especially for those building complete sets or seeking authentic mid-century Royal Albert pieces.
A charming addition for collectors, entertainers, or lovers of classic English china, this tray embodies both everyday elegance and nostalgic appeal.
