British Vintage Royal Crown Derby “Old Avesbury” Sugar Bowl & Milk Jug

This is a sugar bowl and milk jug in the “Old Avesbury” pattern, made by the renowned British porcelain maker Royal Crown Derby in 1946–1947.

A masterpiece conceived by Albert Gregory in 1932 and inspired by medieval embroidery, it features outlines transferred from copper plates in brown, with birds of paradise and flowers rendered in raised hand-applied enamel. The undulating fluted forms and rope-style handles lend classic elegance to its Chinoiserie design.

In glossy, good condition with no noticeable chips or damage. A beautiful addition to an elegant tea table for entertaining.
