Review of Royal Albert Old Country Roses Boxed Cup and Saucer

The quality of Old Country Roses used to be excellent.In 2002-2003, they moved their production to Indonesia, and then to China.The quality has dropped substantially since then, and so have the prices.You get what you pay for.
- China-made pieces are heavier and thicker
- China-made pieces have less accurate gold-work
If its any consolation, all the major brands of fine china are shifting production to Asia from England and Europe, with commensurate decreases in quality, and sometimes in price.

Product Description
Royal Albert's "Old Country Roses" tableware design is one of the most popular bone china patterns of all time.It has sold over 150 million pieces since it was introduced in 1962.The success of Royal Albert, founded in 1896, billows from its quintessentially English grace and elegance and its sense of timeless, romantic fantasy.These qualities are reflected through the delicate floral decoration and flowing curves.
