Royal Doulton Fine Bone China Set for 8 Royal Gold Pattern H. 4980 1969 Vintage

Elevate your table with this elegant Royal Doulton "Royal Gold" H. 4980 dinner set for 8, crafted in England from fine bone china and finished with a luxurious encrusted gold rim and inner gold verge line.

This discontinued pattern is known for its timeless ivory-white body, rich metallic detailing, and classic formal style, perfect for collectors, replacements, or special-occasion dining. A wide band at the rim made with a real gold-based enamel mixed with other oxides and a glassy medium.

After application, it's fired onto the glaze, creating a slightly textured, "encrusted" gold band (often with a tiny palmette/scroll pattern). A narrow gold line where the well of the plate meets the rim - again using a gold enamel fired onto the glazed surface. Dinner plate: 10 3/4" diameter Salad plate: 8 1/8" Cup capacity: 6 oz Saucer: 5 3/4. This particular set includes a creamer and sugar bowl with lid. Items will be professionally packed with bubble wrap and cushioning.
