Masons | Chenille (pink) | Patent Ironstone Jumbo Cup | Transferware c.1955

Welcome to the brave and fabulous world of jumbo cups.

I'm not too sure who decided we were allowed to have huge cups of tea, and that they should look - at the same time - so refined, but whoever did, I'd like to thank.

Masons Chenille pattern is a stunning example of the pink transferware they are so famous for, and this cup really does it justice.

Cup height 7.8 cm Diameter 11 cm
Saucer - diameter 17.5 cm
No notches or cracks

Backstamp contains words, PERMANENT DETERGENT PROOF DECORATION, which indicates it was made post 1950.
