Royal Crown Derby Crushed Velvet Copper Charnwood Cup 220ml (Pack of 6)

The Royal Crown Derby Charnwood Cup is a 220ml bone china tea cup from the Crushed Velvet collection, finished in Copper. The collection was developed to sit comfortably alongside food presentation rather than competing with it — the texture, colour, and pattern are balanced deliberately so that the tableware frames the food without drawing attention away from it. Selected pieces in the range carry full-cover decoration, which works particularly well for afternoon tea settings where the food itself can be modest in scale and visual variety.

In a service environment, bone china at this level holds up well to the demands of repeated handling, dishwashing cycles, and the temperature range typical of hot beverage service. The Copper colourway works within the collection's designed flexibility — it can be used consistently across a table setting or mixed with the other available colourways without looking mismatched, which gives front-of-house teams useful flexibility when managing cover turns or partial breakages over time.

Practical points worth noting for operators considering this range:

• Full-cover decoration adds visual weight well suited to afternoon tea and premium beverage service
• Bone china construction is lighter than porcelain alternatives at comparable capacity
• The three-colourway system allows mixed presentation without a loss of cohesion
• Supplied in a pack of six, suited to small covers or as a complement to an existing set
• Compatible with standard dishwasher cycles within the rated temperature range

This cup is best suited to hotels, tea rooms, restaurants, and private dining operations where tableware presentation forms part of the guest experience. The pack size of six is practical for smaller venues or for topping up an existing set rather than fitting out a large operation from scratch — for higher-volume or full-venue outfitting, it is worth discussing quantity requirements before ordering.

If you are building out a full table setting or want guidance on how the Charnwood range fits together across pieces, the team is happy to talk it through.
