Very finely made and looks great. The problem for me is that the cover of the teapot wobbling big time, contacted Amazon and they quickly sent me a replacement set. I think Amazon service is one of the best around.

I've always wanted something - anything - in this pattern and the very affordable price for this 3-piece set enabled me to finally get my wish. My only regret is that it is no longer made in England. The set is made in Indonesia, is very beautiful, and it has the nice look and feel of fine porcelain. The packaging within its original box was excellent, even including a mesh protector over the spout of the teapot. However, for shipping, the original box was placed inside another larger box with only crumpled paper as a buffer. I think styrofoam in some form would have been superior, especially for a product of this caliber. I could feel the original box sliding in the larger box. All in all, the teapot, creamer and sugar is fantastic and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend ordering this set to anyone who wants one.

I was pleased with the 3 Piece Tea Set made in China. The design (the old country roses) is beautiful and the china looks sturdy (in a delicate kind of way). Again, the tea cup and saucer ordered at the same time and shipped separately made in Indonesia appears of much inferior quality. Again the 3 Piece Tea Set made in China is just gorgeous. I am very pleased. It will look absolutely elegant on my antique Tea Cart. Again my question is, when you order the Royal Albert Old Country Roses Dinnerware, how do you know ahead of time if it was manufactured in China or Indonesia???

It is beautiful and shipped perfectly. I have 2 of the Royal Albert Old Country Rose 24-Dinnerware Piece Set, Service for 4 and now with the Tea Set feel it is almost complete. This set is gorgeous, I am very happy with every piece.

[...] offers this Royal Albert Old Country Roses tea set at an amazing price. This is a beautiful tea set, the tea pot is quite large. Unfortunately, the internal packaging for my set was insufficient and the lid to the tea pot was broken. Amazon arranged for a very quick UPS pickup and credited my account immediately for the return. The set is beautiful, the price is great....hopefully other sets are correctly packaged to arrive intact.

NICE DISHES BUT THE REST OF THE ORDER I HAD TO REPORT NOT ARRIVED. RECEIVED REFUND FROM AMAZON. SELLER SHOULD HAVE PRODUCT IN HAND WHEN OFFERING FOR SALE WAITED SEVERAL WEEKS BEFORE I CONTACTED AMAZON. AFTER NOT HEARING FROM THE SELLER FOR SOME TIME. NO RESPONSE TO SEVERAL EMAILS.ORIGINALLY ORDERED THREE SETS OF THESE.

As I've said in a previous post, I like this set. I received it as a gift and I like it very much. I would have expected it to be a 'finer' china but it is very nice the way it is for it's price. It's nice but it's not so thin you'd be afraid to use it. That's what I like most about the set I have, I will use it to an extent because it is not as thin as if it was over $500. I agree with other reviews, in a world where restaurants are the norm, it's nice to own your own fine china and not be afraid to use it. I plan on adding to my new collection. Customer service from Royal Doulton is awesome so don't fret! A-

The dishes arrived a few days earlier, to my pleseant surprise. The price was less than at Macy's, even with their super sale and coupons. I am very pleased with my purchase through Amazon. Lenore Flanagan

For sixty dollars per place setting you expect quality. I think I got what I expected. I found no flaws, was impressed by the quality of the gold and other 'old country roses' design features, and feel I've risen to a new level of civility! A high quality place setting will do that for you. These are well made in indonesia, not england. Better made than my indonesian teak lawn furniture, which isn't too shoddy itself regarding quality. You must feel you need this Royal Albert place setting, as well as the large selection of additional table pieces, or it won't mean anything to you. The pleasure you get from it is internal, in your own mind. It helps you to feel thoroughly middle class, not to put too fine a point on it. And what's wrong with that? With all the dumbing down of culture as this century gets rolling toward that 'restaurant at the end of the universe,' why should we deny ourselves the pleasure of owning, maybe even using, this fine china. Now that you have decided to get it, you need a china server! See my 'all my reviews' section for a review of an antique teak piece for an astonishing price. Next, start thinking about all the other pieces, gravy boats etc., you will want to accumulate over the years to complete your set. Don't take out a second (or third) mortgage on the house to do it though! Recommended.

This stuff smells great and this is an excellent price for it. It arrived in a couple of days with free delivery and was well packaged. What more could you ask?

My husband has been using this for 37 years since our honeymoon in Jamaica. It is no longer a good product. It is simply alchohol and a little scent. There is no bay leaf in the bottle. Don't waste your money. They have reduced this product to nothing when it was the most fabulous after shave ever before.

Last week I bought a bottle of "Royall Bay Rhum" from my normal supplier. I don't go through a bottle but every few years. Evidently, it has been near six years since my last purchase, because the Bermuda people sold out to a USA concern six years ago, and now the marque is formulated in the USA. This recent bottle is H2O and alcohol with a fraction of the oils of the Bermuda product. I had an e-mail conversation about my and my wife's impressions. The Bermuda Royall contact stated that the ingredients are the same, but the US Customs somehow regulates how much of the key oils can be used in the US product. My wife used to love this. She noticed immediately that the new bottle has only a little of the impact of the fragrance and no depth. I have a bit of the old product, and she can tell the difference right away. So, about $38 for a 4 oz. bottle for nothing. I recommend not buying this product. You will find it now unsatisfying compared to what you bought several years ago. Now I need to try to find another Bay Rum(Rhum) product that is satisfying to my wife and me.

I first tried Royall Bay Rhum about 40 years ago when I bought a bottle in the USVI. I really enjoyed its understated scent which I guess one could call "manly". Perhaps it's just my memory, but I seem to recall the scent being quite a bit stronger and certainly a lot longer lasting. I still like the scent but find myself using it a lot more liberally than I do most colognes. By the way, I consider this to be more of an after shave than a cologne. While it's not the most expensive cologne/after shave I've ever used, I think that it's expensive enough that it should be longer lasting or at least a lot stronger. As it is, I think that it's been cut with a lot of alcohol to stretch the more expensive ingredients. To put it bluntly, I find this product overpriced. I'll probably use Bay Rhum again but it will not be Royall.

My husband has used this very expensive product for years. This bottle has almost no scent. It smells like pure alcohol. This has never happened when I ordered this product from a small store. $50 literally down the drain!

I am buying Doulton for my shop ,so find this book so informative, and current,brilliant cant be with out.used all the time.

Great book for getting the current value of Royal Doulton items. Easy to use and very thorough.

A useful catalogue for the collector of Royal Doulton Figurines.

The book is very good and has photos of all but the latest figurines. The prices in the book would have to be considered "full retail". I found many figurines for sale in mint condition for 1/2 the book price or less. It is well organized with easy indexing by name or number.

This volume is enormously helpful in identifying & valuing Royal Doulton Figurines. Sorted by series (e.g. HN or M) & series # (4-digit number following series) it is very easy to use! Also it has cross-references which are very helpful when you have a name/title instead of the series #. This book would have gotten a 5-star rating from me if it did not have missing HN series #'s, most of which correspond to animal figurines. Since I am interested in a FEW animals, it would have been nice to have them all in one volume! (I don't really want to buy ANOTHER reference just for the few animals I'm interested in!) Also, if you are a Bunnykins collector, that info is also missing from this volume. (I'm not, so it wasn't a problem for me.)

I am pleased with the product I ordered and received. It's just what I wanted.

This catalogue is indispensable for any collector of Royal Doulton character jugs. It gives you some idea of the value of the jugs for buying or selling in the current market. For the new collector it also gives you the history of the character jugs.

Antique Trader Royal Doulton Price Guide I collect Royal Doulton items and had hoped this book would be up to date, especially on their Bunnykins Series, animals, and figurines. However, most of what I look up isn't in this price guide. It is nicely illustrated. Maybe useful for beginners, but I was looking for a far more detailed price guide.

Good price guide for many (but not all) of Royal Doulton products (tableware not included). An improvement over Charlton in that it provides colour pictures as opposed to Charlton's mostly black/white.Antique Trader Royal Doulton Price Guide

This is a good resource for Royal Doulton items not found in the Charlton Standard Catalogue. The two books together will give you a pretty comprehensive resource for identifying & valuing "most" Royal Doulton pieces. This duplicates a small portion of the info in Charlton Standard, but includes most things missing from it. It is a great resource for animals, Bunnykins, Character Jugs, Flambe, Burslem, Lambert Art wares and more! To any Royal Doulton collectors, I recommend BOTH of these volumes!
