Royal Albert 100 Years 1980 Mug

Beautiful cup!

I bought this for my mom for Christmas this year because for my entire adult life she has been in love with the royal Albert tea cup collection. She was so happy when she got to open this, it literally put a twinkle of happy in her eye. Bonus points for the poppy flower on it as that was my late grandmother's nickname (poppy) . Counting mine my mother now has 5 total and they're all beautifully made, exquisite quality and they come in the cutest box one could ever hope for. If tea cups or decorative china is your thing I highly recommend the Royal Albert tea cups and finery . The only downside is that these ones aren't microwaveable but otherwise I was super happy with my choice and so was she. My mom's my queen so she deserves to drink from Royal Albert.

My first one, which came in a set, was cracked on the bottom when it arrived. The replacement is just beautiful and fits a big cup of coffee, just what I want. great product,,,

Very beautiful. This is what my daughter wanted for Christmas. She loves it. Arrived on time in excellent condition

This is my FAVORITE china pattern of all time. It is Royal Albert 1940s English Chintz. The pinks and purples they use for this pattern are lovely. The subtle lavender design in the background is a perfect touch. Bone china is so strong that if the handle of a tea cup does not go above the rim, you can actually turn it upside down on the floor and stand on top of it. I know, because I've done it several times and I'm over 250 pounds! Because it's bone china, it's lightweight but VERY durable. I was so pleased to have found it for just under $40, because it's usually more than that. I wish I could buy more, but I'm on a super tight budget and I keep imagining my cat finding a way to knock it off a table. I'd love to have a whole set of this pattern someday, but I don't expect that to ever happen.

Beautiful

The mug arrived sooner than expected, packaged beautifully. This is my third purchase of these mugs. Nothing else compares. These mugs cheer me up everyday. I have coffee in them several times a day. My coffee tastes better in these gorgeous mugs. Guests are always complementary. I have Royal Douton China, service for 12 and it is beautiful stuff. Best quality, trusted name brand. I encourage people to treat themselves to one of these mugs. Pretty sure they will not be disappointed and will probably want a couple more. The mugs deserve more than 5 stars.

I love this cup. It's like a beautiful fine China teacup with the generous capacity of a coffee mug. This was a Christmas gift from my son and came beautifully packaged. Perfect for gifting. The price is the only part I have an issue with. At about $30 a piece, the cost makes it prohibitive for the average person to have a set or collection of these.
