Regency | Pansy | Staffordshire | c. 1960s

Really lovely cup and saucer with subtle mauve, and antique green florals from Regency - a short lived manufacturer founded in 1953 in the potteries in Staffordshire.  

Little is known about the founders (although I suspect there to be a link to Hudson and Middleton since they were established just down the road), but in any case the firm had wound up by 2004. Luckily they left us some lovely cups to remember them by. This one is quite atypical, usually their cups were more strongly coloured but I like the subtlety of this one.
