Another Fabulous Regency Era Gift for Your Consideration

John Rose Coalport Old English Trio Pattern, c. 1825
I drool. I sigh. These rose and green colors echo those in my dining room and living room. I MUST have this wonderful china. Then again, can my humble budge afford the $325 USD of this trio? I fear not. Plus I would not dare to use this china in fear of damaging the delicate edges.

If money were no object, I would click on the Ruby Lane antiques site, which offers these beautiful items for sale, and order the lot.
