Midwinter Stylecraft “Vintage Rose” breakfast set
made in Staffordshire, England 1954
How beautiful is this set? Vintage Rose, fashion shape 2-60 [the squircle, I believe it’s called.] The Vintage Rose set was made in 1954, according to www.midwinderdirectory.co.uk –which you might like to check out. I love the shape, and the retro rose image…it’s perfect for those retro breakfasts that you always wanted to have!
The set comprises two tea cups and saucers, two breakfast bowls and two side plates. Breakfast for two. It’s in mint condition and would look great on a sideboard when not being used for tea and toast.
This set is for sale: $AUD80 Midwinter is SO collectible right now!
Love a good squircle, I have a few myself but didn’t know it had such a cool name, thanks for the info Edwina.
yup, it’s a squircle- probably the ugliest name in the shape universe. but, pleased to have provided some info -(via good ol’ wikipedia.)
It is a very beautiful shape but agree the name is hardly endearing. Very pretty set!
thanks angela! i think the vintage rose set is kinda nice.
these are lovely and learned a new word today : )
great and good: so pleased to have introduced you to a new word.
so very pretty! why does the word ‘squircle’ make me think of Miley Cyrus and quirking…not good. 🙂
thanks mandy- i like your word quirking a whole lot better than squircle. it’s quirky!
