A grand 16 piece Madeira tea set consisting of 8 underplates and 6 cocktail mats, all hand embroidered in the traditional bridal basket pattern. These are made from a crisp, fine Irish linen with the perfect hand embroidery you'd expect from the highly skilled Maderia workers. Each underplate measures 10" x 9.5" with the smaller coasters measuring in at 6" x 5.75". Although probably not the fanciest set I've ever run across (though close!), it's definitely one of the prettiest. Each and every piece is bright white, stain free and in perfect condition. Guaranteed to wow your lady friends and a feather in the cap of every Madeira collector.
Hand laundered, air dried and pressed. Excellent condition. c. 1930
