This is a classic cup and saucer in Blue Calico, popular for its strong contrasting blue.
This is Burley's second most famous design after Pheasants, and is inspired by a prunus (a type of cherry blossom) fallen onto ice.
A warm floral pattern that makes you feel the end of a long winter and the beginning of spring.
The rim of the cup is slightly wider, making it comfortable to drink from, and the squared handle makes it easy for your thumb to rest on, so it fits comfortably in your hand.
The saucer is deep, so it can also be used as a small plate.

Burley was founded in 1851 and achieved success thanks to the efforts of two men, Frederick Burgess and William Leigh. Since moving to its current factory in 1889, all of its series have been produced at the same factory (Middleport Pottery).
The factory was designated an Important Cultural Property in 2011 and was restored over a period of three years and at great expense by the then Prince Charles' charitable foundation.
Even today, we continue to make ceramics by hand, inheriting the techniques and wonderful designs of our skilled craftsmen.
