The Royal Collection Trust has released an official range of commemorative china to celebrate Princess Eugenie’s marriage to Jack Brooksbank on Friday, 12 October 2018.
A tankard, coaster (plate), pillbox and a miniature teacup and saucer ornament are part of the items available to mark this very special occasion.
This range of English fine bone china is entirely made by hand using unchanged traditional methods for 250 years.
Each item features Princess Eugenie’s monogram below a coronet, as well as the couple’s conjoined monogram. These monograms are surrounded by garlands of ivy woven with traditional English bluebells, forget-me-nots and the white rose of York.
Each item is also decorated with gold around the edges.
This official range is available for overseas shoppers through the Buckingham Palace Gift Shop.
