Cup and Saucer c1930s
This is a marriage but a pretty one! The cup is Bourne and Leigh Mayblossom and is in excellent condition. The saucer is Hawthorn by the Empire Porcelain Company and again is in excellent condition. The patterns are basically the same with white flowers on a blue background. The main difference is that Hawthorn is stylized like the Chinese prunus design with a "cracked ice" background and the flowers are well defined. with the Mayblossom the flowers are a little more muted.
