Roslyn China "Moss Rose" Creamer

Made in England

A note from Geoff on Friday 12th August 2005
"I bought this as a 'Surprise Present' for Sharon!!!
In the last couple of days, she mentioned that she was 'disappointed'
that she hadn't bid on jug/creamer that went for a 'good price'
I saw this one and it looks the style that she would like
- so I made a bid!!! - and won!!!
And, from the information further down this page,
it may have been a bit of a bargain!!!"
