ITEM DETAILS
An elegant vintage Paragon fine bone china teacup and saucer set, beautifully decorated with a rich ruby red ground and intricate hand-applied gold gilt floral scrollwork. The center of both the cup and saucer features a delicate hand-painted multicolor floral bouquet, creating a striking contrast against the deep red and gold border.
Paragon was one of England’s most prestigious china manufacturers and held the Royal Warrant to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Pieces bearing this mark were produced during the mid-20th century, approximately 1950s–1960s.
This set showcases Paragon’s signature craftsmanship with luxurious gilding, vibrant enamel colors, and refined bone china translucency, making it a wonderful display piece for collectors or afternoon tea lovers.
