Inspired by 19th-century botanical illustrations, artist Susan Williams-Ellis has created a truly unique mix-and-match collection for Portmeirion. Designed in 1972, Botanic Garden features more than 30 different floral and butterfly designs, with new designs joining the collection on a regular basis. Each scene has been painstakingly reproduced by hand with every detail beautifully rendered. Butterflies flutter about, flowers bend in the breeze, and a distinctive leaf border can be found on each item in the collection.

This lovely 12-piece set includes six 7-ounce tea cups and six matching 6-inch saucers. The bowl of each small cup is adorned with a different flower motif and a medley of butterflies, while the signature leaf pattern borders the edge of each saucer. The decorative flower clusters include: cinquefoil, common vetch, harebell, herb robert, sweet violet, and white campion. The Botanic Garden collection incorporates a full line of coordinating table settings, bakeware, serving items, and giftware. Made in Britain from high-quality earthenware, each tableware piece is safe in the dishwasher, microwave, oven, and freezer. --Lea Werbel
