Ironstone Staffordshire Historical Blue Cup and Saucer Set of 3 Broadhurst Ironware Transferware.



Ironstone pieces were made in the 1920 as replicas of the ones from the XIX Century. Then other replicas were made in the 1960s with exclusive decorative purposes.

Such Blue Transferware were made in 2 styles:

- Blue Willow which refers to a pattern based on a Chinese love story featuring the lovers on a bridge.

- Staffordshire Or Historical Blue features patterns based on important landmarks scenes from history and commemorative events.

This Set belongs to the Historical Blue style, most probably made in the 1960s and features a landmark scene all around the pieces.
