Wedgwood Victorian Creamware Chrysanthemum Dinner & Tea Service Set

Indulge in the refined elegance of the Victorian table with this exquisite Wedgwood Creamware Chrysanthemum Pattern Dinner & Tea Service Set. Crafted by the legendary English maker Wedgwood, this finely potted creamware ensemble showcases a classic chrysanthemum floral design that is both delicately romantic and unmistakably sophisticated.

Displaying the restrained luxury that made Wedgwood synonymous with taste and quality, each piece in this set is decorated with a beautifully detailed chrysanthemum motif. The soft cream ground provides the perfect backdrop for the intricate pattern, creating a harmonious balance of colour, texture and form that elevates any table setting from the everyday to the exceptional.

This set is ideal for collectors of antique Wedgwood, connoisseurs of Victorian ceramics, or anyone wishing to curate an elegant, historically inspired table. Whether used for formal dinners, afternoon tea, or displayed as a focal point in a china cabinet, it offers a timeless statement of style and refinement.

Key Features

• Maker: Wedgwood – renowned English pottery manufacturer
• Material: Fine creamware / earthenware
• Design: Victorian Chrysanthemum pattern with patterned finish
• Era/Style: Victorian-inspired classic English tableware
• Type: Coordinated dinnerware and serveware set – ideal for dinner and tea service
• Use: Formal dining, afternoon tea, display, or collection

Design & Aesthetic

The chrysanthemum has long been associated with elegance, longevity and grace, and here it is rendered with a delicate Victorian sensibility. The patterned finish adds depth and texture, catching the light beautifully and enhancing the visual interest of each piece. The warm cream tone of the body gives a soft, flattering backdrop to the floral decoration, making it easy to coordinate with both antique and contemporary table linens, glassware and silver.

This is a quintessentially English country house look: refined but not ostentatious, decorative yet practical, and steeped in the heritage of one of Britain’s most important ceramic manufacturers.

Condition

This antique set presents generally in good condition, especially considering its age and history of use. It displays the gentle signs of wear that serious collectors often appreciate as part of an authentic period piece:

• Pedestal dish: Small chip to the base.
• Plates and other pieces: Minor fritting and light paint loss to some edges.

Overall, the set remains highly presentable on the table and beautiful on display. The noted imperfections are consistent with age and use and do not detract from the charm or decorative impact of the ensemble. As with all antique ceramics, please review photographs carefully for a full appreciation of condition.

Why This Set Stands Out

• Authentic Victorian character: Perfect for period interiors, traditional dining rooms, and collectors of 19th-century ceramics.
• Prestigious maker: Wedgwood is one of the most respected names in fine English pottery, sought after worldwide.
• Decorative versatility: Beautiful for both daily enjoyment and special occasions – from intimate suppers to elegant afternoon tea.
• Investment in quality: Antique Wedgwood creamware is increasingly prized for its craftsmanship, history and enduring appeal.

Ideal For

• Collectors of Wedgwood creamware and British ceramics
• Those furnishing a Victorian or traditional home
• Hosts who appreciate luxurious, coordinated table settings
• Stylists and designers seeking authentic period pieces for interiors or photo shoots
