AMERICAN BEAUTY By ROYAL ALBERT

Royal Albert "American Beauty" is the quintessential full bloomed rose to represent this brand that has always been associated with the highest quality of tableware.  Unfortunately the production of American Beauty ceased in 1998.   It is however, much sought after by china collectors and lovers of Royal Dolton and Royal Albert.  On this this posting are the pieces I have so far collected.  My aim is to have an "American Beauty' teapot.


My first piece of Royal Albert "American Beauty" which is part of my logo

While this photograph is from Pinterest , I have one tennis set of this romantic pattern.



I have experimented with different shades of pink in this tablescape of 'American Beauty'

This English Teapot with its gilt handle and spout complement the tea set somewhat.

This side plate or tea plate of 'American Beauty' has a square look, showing the variation in many of the pieces in this pattern over the years. 

One of the beautiful accessories in this pattern is the lemon plate, used in particular when lemon tea was truly fashionable.

Notice the different shape of this 'American Beauty' teacup compared to the photo above.



The hollow stemmed Champagne glasses add to the grace and elegance of this timeless but discontinued pattern.



Another accessory , the small dish to the left of the teapot holds a luxury mini pudding.  That is real... the pink champagne is not!

The timeless beauty of elegance and romance is captured in this setting of other beautiful pieces for a tea table.

A rose in the foreground to remind us that Royal Albert patterns were often inspired by the English national flower, the rose.
