Bone China Care Instructions Bone china can be washed in a dishwasher - at a maximum temperature of 60°C. However, where precious metals are used (gold or platinum) ware should be washed by hand and not used in the microwave. Scouring pads or abrasive washing agents must not be used. Soaking in warm water before washing will remove most stains or hardened on particles. Stubborn stains can be removed by soaking in a mild bleach solution for up to one hour without damaging the china. When storing plates, try not to slide them over one another as this may cause tiny scratches in the glaze. We recommend a paper napkin is placed between each plate.

SPECK Every piece in the Speck collection has a unique identity - decorated with a seemingly random array of dots. When bone china is fired, metal elements in the clay can react leaving tiny black dots on the otherwise perfect pieces. These black dots are known as speck. Traditionally manufacturers have selected their ware, reserving pieces with speck for designs that cover up much of the bone china. The Speck collection challenges tradition by celebrating these random and unavoidable imperfections. Wherever a speck appears, it is covered by a small, circular copper dot. The pieces are finished with cobalt blue edging. The result is a refined and graphic collection where no two pieces are the same.

REFLECT ‘Reflect’ brings life back to antique saucers, missing their other halves, by using platinum and gold gilding to create highly reflective cups. The mirrored cups reflect the patterned saucers, uniting them as perfect couples. Each cup is skillfully hand painted and then paired with a saucer, that Richard meticulously sources himself from antique dealers across Britain.
The images below are examples of the style and quality of antique saucers we pair, and sell, with our gold and platinum Reflect cups. We are constantly replenishing stock of antique saucers; at any given time we may have in excess of 300 different saucers available. If you would like to see our current stock, we will share our image library with you. Please note all of the saucers are original antique pieces; often we will only have one saucer in any given pattern. If you would like multiple saucers with the same pattern we will do our best to meet your request. Prices vary depending on how rare the antique saucers are. See price categories below and refer to the price list.
