Take a seat and enjoy the style and splendour of the V&A"s Refreshment Rooms with this fine china teacup and saucer from The Cole Collection. Styled with deep blue and elegant white, the teacup sees a stunning floral arabesque peeking out from the blue rim with curving tendrils, while the saucer is patterned with the same florals and a bold geometric pattern of small hexagons. This eclectic tableware collection is inspired by the three luxurious dining areas at the V&A, the origins of which date back to the world"s first museum restaurant: the first Refreshment Room which was introduced by the V&A"s founding director, Henry Cole, in 1856. A diverse mix and match tableware story, The Cole Collection is perfectly suited for everyday brunches, lunches and dinners that will bring the cultural inspiration of the V&A to every dining experience in the home.
