Decorating this service, which comprises teapot, tray and 4 bone china teacups, is calligraphy from a pair of stupendous solid jade imperial seals, proclaiming ‘His Majesty at Seventy’ and ‘His Majesty at Eighty’. Quietly elegant, the satin-finished pewter teapot is further enhanced by a graceful brass handle in similarly lustrous finish. The tray’s sculpted handles replicate the stylised leaf motif on the seals’ elaborately worked sandalwood case.

Based on a pair of jade imperial seals of the Qianlong Emperor; Qing dynasty, Qianlong reign (1736-1795)

Space is available on the teapot for personalisation.
