Minton Majostic Haddon Hall Cup and Saucer Set of 2 FINE BONE CHINA【Last1】
Minton was founded in 1793 by copperplate engraver Thomas Minton. At the 1851 Great Exhibition in London, the brand was praised as "the most beautiful bone china in the world" and became a supplier to the British Royal Family. In particular, "Haddon Hall," designed with the motif of the tapestries of Haddon Hall Castle, became a bestseller. It was later absorbed by Royal Doulton in 1968, and came under the umbrella of Wedgwood in 2005. The brand has now been discontinued, so existing items are considered extremely valuable.
This cup and saucer is a variation of Minton's best-selling "Haddon Hall" design, released in 2006 to commemorate the 150th anniversary of Minton's supply to the British Royal Family. With its generous use of gold leaf, it is an elegant and dazzling piece worthy of the Majestic name.
