Not much could be found on the history of the Osborne China Company besides that it could possibly have been part of the Regent Works, Mount Pleasant, Longton, Stoke-on-Trent. All information that I could find on this company was that in 1937 Thomas Morris (of the Regent Works), along with HJ Colclough and the Osborne Co. Ltd., became part of Colclough China Ltd. The Regent Works then continued to operate under Colclough China Ltd. Osborne China however was only in production from 1909 to 1940.
The item is a stunning 15 piece tea set consisting of a biscuit plate, open sugar bowl, milk jug/creamer and 4 complete tea trios (cup, saucer and tea plate). The colours in this “Wembley” pattern are soft brown, yellow, green and orange with gold trim.
All the items are stamped underneath “Wembley” Trade Mark Osborne China England.
Besides slight fading of the gold trim, the set is in absolutely beautiful second hand condition with no other damages besides slight fading noted.
