Royal Doulton "Vanborough Green" Dinner Service

Royal Doulton "Vanborough Green" Partial Dinner Service

ca. 1967-1985, English, the service comprised of ten dinner plates, dia. 10-1/2", ten salad plates, dia. 8", ten bread-and-butter plates, dia. 6-1/2", ten dessert bowls, dia. 5-1/2", ten rim soup plates, dia. 8", ten footed cups, h. 2-1/2", with ten saucers, dia. 6", an open sugar bowl, h. 3", w. 7-3/4", a cream jug, h. 5-1/2", w. 5-1/4", and a gravy boat and stand, h. 4", w. 8-3/4".
Condition Report: In overall very good condition, much of the service, aside from the dinner plates, does not appear to have been used, or used very infrequently. The dinner plates do exhibit some very minor scratches and scuffs to their wells from cutlery use, but the rims and gilding are intact. One dinner plate has a "flea-bite" chip to its foot rim. On one soup bowl, there is a small horizontal crack that appears to be an innate firing crack that opened up. Another sald plate has an innate anomaly-raised glaze bubble to its underside.
