Description
Iconic 1960s coffee set, featuring 6 straight mugs/cups and 6 saucers in the ‘Greek Key’ pattern, designed by Susan Williams-Ellis, daughter of Clough Williams-Ellis, the creator of the Portmeirion village in North Wales. The mugs/cups stand 8.2cm high and the accompanying saucer is 13.5cm diameter. The mugs/cups are white with a black key design and gloss glazed, while the saucers are black satin glazed. This set would certainly create a vintage feel to any coffee morning!
(The mugs are smaller than we are used to these days, so I'm not sure if they would be classed as mugs or cups)

condition
Each mug/cup shows age-crazing to a varying degree, and one of them has a surface crack on the top of the handle that appears to be quite safe (see detailed picture) it is not a break. There are no chips or cracks on the other pieces.
