PORTMEIRION WELSH DRESSER SET OF 6 COASTERS IN BOX
Very Rare Item In Mint Condition - Hard To Find Retired Set!
|
I am pleased to offer an excellent and hard to find Welsh Dresser set of six
round coasters in their original Portmeirion box (not pictu4ed). Each coaster is about 4 inches across and has a melamine face with a cork backing. These coasters were made in New Zealand.
Each coaster is in perfect condition both on the face and back. They were almost certainly never used. Please be sure to look below to see lots of photos and care instructions.
This pattern, designed by Angharad Menna, emulates old Llanelli Ware.
Produced for 100 years, but unable to compete with other potters, Llanelli
Ware stopped production in the early 1900's. Portmeiron's Welch Dresser is a
continuation of this art.

to normal household stains and withstands temperatures up to the boiling

The dark green Portmeirion box (not pictured) front and is very nice with no rips or tears.
However, there is very little minor wear along part of the edges and the white
paper underneath is showing through. Almost all Portmeirion coaster and tablemat boxes show some wear along the edge.
Beautiful and minty Welsh Dresser hard to find coasters!
