Shelley Pink Thistle Cup shops and Saucer - Lincoln Shape Pattern 14249 - Shelley Bone China Pink Teacup England

Shelley Lincoln shape cup and saucer in Thistle pattern # 14249. It is rare to find this pale rose pink cup with thistle in Shelley's Lincoln shape. This estate set was used for display only and has no chips, cracks or crazing.

There are some minor imperfections, which I've highlighted in the photos: inside the cup, there is a 1/4 inch groove under the glaze. Also, there are a few pinhead size bumps under the glaze on the cup shops and saucer.

The lighting in the photos give the cup a peach/pink look but It does not look peach under natural light. The accurate description for this color is pale pink with a hint of rose color and the thistle is plum/mauve.

1940-1966 backstamp.

Shipping and insurance are included in price.

Cup: 2-1/8 " H
Saucer: 5-7/8" dia
