Harrowby Vintage Florals

Found this little vintage floral tea set a while ago in a charity shop and forgot to blog about it!

 
Its Harrowby china.


 
Quite understated, but lovely!


 
Thanks for all your suggestions yesterday - very useful.  I have decided to leave the paper intact because it is actually in very good condition.  If china looked good with it as a background then, I'm sure it will look good now, too!  Thanks again.

Love, Liz

Pretty! I'm just trying to catch up with some of what I've missed out on recently. Your china cabinets is superb, and is going to look lovelier still once painted. A perfect home for some of your china!

Hello, I'm a new visitor and have been enjoying your last couple of posts. This china is very lovely, a treat for the eyes.

Glad you decided to keep the paper in the china cabinet. I think it's a shame to paint over that beautiful wood. I love it just as it is. But I realize we each have our own ideas about decor and know what will look best in our own homes. I look forward to seeing the finished project!

So sweet. You will have to show us a picture when you finish your cabinet and get it filled!
