Tara's Passion

I have inherited my love of British antique china from my grandfather who was a respected porcelain collector. I am greatly inspired by the mastery of science, engineering and technical wizardry close to alchemy that saw the explosion of the British porcelain industry in 17th Century. It is possible to say that since this time few objects as small as these fine china pieces have lent themselves to such a variety of shape and decoration and been the subject of so much lavish attention and creative ingenuity.

It is my hope that all of my fine china gifts can not only be used everyday but also displayed as a decorative antique or vintage collectable in their own right.

Condition and Care

I thoroughly check every piece of china, I am very stringent about this and only select china in excellent condition despite its age. No piece will ever be chipped or cracked, however as many items are antique they may display slight imperfections associated with the manufacturing process of the time.

As much of the china is hand painted and has delicate gilding it is not suitable for modern dishwashers. I would recommend that it is best washed by hand in warm soapy water with a non abrasive cloth.
