William Edwards Reed Tea Saucer / Soup Stand 160mm (Pack of 12)

The William Edwards Reed tea saucer and soup stand is a dual-purpose piece from a bone china collection inspired by English countryside birdlife. Each piece features hand-painted illustrations — including the Kingfisher, Reed Bunting and Lapwing — making it a considered choice for operators who want tableware that adds visual character without moving away from classic, formal presentation. Sold in packs of twelve, it is sized to pair with standard teacups and small soup bowls.

Bone china construction gives the Reed range a reputation for durability that holds up in regular front-of-house use. The scratch-resistant glaze helps maintain the appearance of the pieces through repeated service cycles and commercial dishwasher use, which matters for any venue where tableware turnover is high and replacement costs need to be managed.

• Suitable for both tea service and as a soup bowl stand, reducing the number of separate saucer pieces needed in stock
• Hand-painted English birdlife illustrations add character suited to hotel dining, tearoom, and fine casual settings
• Scratch-resistant glaze supports ongoing commercial dishwasher use without rapid surface deterioration
• Bone china construction offers a balance of refined appearance and everyday durability
• Pack of twelve makes it a practical quantity for initial stocking or topping up existing covers

This collection is well suited to hotel restaurants, traditional tearooms, boutique hospitality venues, and any operator aiming to present a distinctly English aesthetic at the table. If you are building out a full cover, other pieces within the Reed range are available to complete the set.
