The Harold Holdcroft inspired Old Country Roses was launched in 1962. The Royal Albert Art Director based his design on the 1921 King’s Ransom pattern. All these elements are incorporated in the pattern. It has lush deep red roses, warmth from the tea roses, delicacy from the bluish pink and an overall softening off of the pattern by using a soft shade of green. The rich gold stipple trim gives the sprays continuity and the china good value for money. Enhanced by the elegant traditional Royal Albert Montrose shape with its attractive scalloped edges and twisted and curled detailed handles. Old Country Roses is the worlds best selling bone china pattern with more than 150 million pieces having being sold since its introduction in 1962.
