BOTANIC GARDEN VARIATION 7oz CUP And SAUCER SET OF FOUR
Mint Condition - Unusual Hard To Find Pattern!

I am happy to offer a set of four 7 ounce Botanic Garden Variation cups and saucers. The Variations sub-pattern of Botanic Garden has been retired for several years and is no longer available.

All eight pieces are in great condition with no signs of use or wear.

Portmeirion Botanic Garden Variations Cup Set Of Four

Botanic Garden Variations pattern was introduced in 1990 and discontinued in 2000. All pieces feature a ring of Rhododendron and Forget-Me-Not. The backstamp on these items are unusual and are spelled Variation instead of Variations.

Both the cups and saucers are marked on the bottom with the a BG Variation ID mark. It is unusual to see a saucer with a backstamp.
