Editorial Review: Amazon.com Review: Inspired by 19th-century botanical illustrations, artist Susan Williams-Ellis has created a truly unique mix-and-match collection for Portmeirion. Designed in 1972, Botanic Garden features more than 30 different floral and butterfly designs, with new designs joining the collection on a regular basis. Each scene has been painstakingly reproduced by hand with every detail beautifully rendered. Butterflies flutter about, flowers bend in the breeze, and a distinctive leaf border can be found on each item in the collection. This lovely 12-piece set includes six 7-ounce tea cups and six matching 6-inch saucers. The bowl of each small cup is adorned with a different flower motif and a medley of butterflies, while the signature leaf pattern borders the edge of each saucer. The decorative flower clusters include: cinquefoil, common vetch, harebell, herb robert, sweet violet, and white campion. The Botanic Garden collection incorporates a full line of coordinating table settings, bakeware, serving items, and giftware. Made in Britain from high-quality earthenware, each tableware piece is safe in the dishwasher, microwave, oven, and freezer. --Lea Werbel Average Rating:

Even the plates, which only have six flowers at any given time have had numerous flowers offered over the years. They have downsized the tureen. Fortunately, many discontinued items can still be found if one searches hard enough. This is a new "traditional" style tea cup in a 7oz. they are trying to come up with something more delicate than the traditional heavy ...

And obviously the saucers are smaller too. I kept the product but was greatly disappointed. The cup size should be printed, and in fact they cost more than the larger ones. The price was high in general, as i found them cheaper in a store near home. Internet shopping learning curve for me indeed. |
