What makes this set stand out from the crowd, is that it has retained all of its original components in pristine, unmarked, undamaged, and almost unused condition…even after 97 years!
This heavy set weighs in at 16.5kg (36lbs) and comes complete with 2 x original keys for the case locks.
All the fine China crockery is the original ‘Bisto’ make (short for ‘Bishop & Stonier’), which includes plates, saucers, and 6 of the ultra-rare ‘Bisto’ tea cups.
The copper kettle and matching copper burner stand are both in outstanding condition, and the kettle has retained its original loose tea infuser.
This is a full dining set, as opposed to just a tea set, insofar as it comes with drinks bottles, ceramic food/sandwich boxes, butter and jam pots, drinking glasses, and salt & pepper shakers etc.
I very much doubt that another such complete and original set as this exists, especially not in the same outstanding and original condition as this exquisite set that you see here.
If you are looking for a rare example of probably one of the best 6 person picnic sets available in the world, please get in touch, as you may not find another for another 90+ years!
The condition of this set is simply outstanding, and it’s ready to be used whenever or wherever the mood takes you, or better still, why not pop it in the boot or rear rack of your veteran, vintage, classic car, or even your modern family vehicle, and enjoy the very best of stylish posh picnics!
