I am pleased to offer a hard to find set of six romantic shape cups and saucers. The cups holds 8 ounces to the brim, but 6 ounces would probably be a comfortable capacity. The six fruit motifs in the set are:

Wilmots Early Red Gooseberry --- Queen Of Sheba Gooseberry --- Biggerraux Cherry
L'Imperatrice Plum --- Hoary Morning Apple --- Grimwoods Royal George Peach

Four of the fruits have been retired from the Pomona range, including both the Gooseberries, which are very rare and hard to find. Both cups and saucers are in excellent condition with perhaps some very minor wear in the saucer well where the cup sits. Please be sure to see below for more photos and a complete description.


The fruit motif is found on the front and back of the cup.

The first two sets are the rare Gooseberries. They were retired early and examples are very hard to find today.

---> Queen Of Sheba Gooseberry <---

The next two sets, L'Imperartice Plum and Biggerraux Cherry, both discontinued around 10 years ago. The Plum has the original black accents on the edges of the fruit.

The last two sets, Hoary Morning Apple and Grimwoods Peach, are still currently in production.

Other Comments	A wonderful and rare set of Pomona romantic shape cups and saucers!

The ID mark on the retired fruits is the original brownish colored round Goddess of Fruit Pomona stamp. The Grimwoods Peach and Hoary Apple might have a pink or orange color backstamp. The image below is from one cup only.
