Royal Crown Derby celebrates Queen’s platinum wedding anniversary

The Queen and Duke of Edinburgh celebrate the 70th anniversary of their marriage this year.

To mark the occasion, Royal Crown Derby has launched The Queen’s Platinum Wedding Anniversary Commemorative Collection.

The range comprises four bone china pieces featuring an adaptation of the Princess pattern originally designed in 1947 by Royal Crown Derby, and presented to the royal couple, when they married on November 20 at Westminster Abbey.

Flora and fauna inspired motifs in blush pink buds intertwine with flowing vines and leaves in delicate platinum detailing.

Delicate script adds a celebratory touch, with a message commemorating the anniversary in platinum. This is a reference to the traditional precious metal given to couples on their 70th wedding anniversary.

The items are: the Gadroon Plate (limited edition of 500), Loving Cup (limited edition of 500), Five Petal Tray, and a pair of Majestic Love Birds (limited edition of 500).
