Vintage Spode Buttercup pattern Cups & Saucers 6 sets available - James Bay Area Description: The earliest record of Buttercup is a hand-painted on bone china in 1885. It is thought to have been designed by Francis Xavier Abrahams, who worked at Copelands between 1882 and 1902 and was for a short time Art Director. Following the engraving of a copper plate for printing, Buttercup appeared in its popular form on earthenware and on the Chelsea Wicker shape. A different version known as Mandalay was produced in reds and browns, while Primose featured blues. The pattern was also produced using the name Wicker Dell from 1962 to 1964. Spode Buttercup is no longer produced. 6 cups an 6 saucers Condition: Excellent Asking: $10.00/set 1 cup and 1 saucer 6 sets available Please text, call and/or email Conny 778.676.0087 Search Conny for other items for sale and ask about discounts for multiple items purchased.
