Part of the Regents Park Rose pattern and featuring a large, blousy, pale pink rose  with an embossed laurel leaf wreath around the shoulder, we suspect this design was most likely named after Regents Park in London.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHome to the Queen’s Rose Garden since the 1930s, this area of the park boasts over 12,000 roses highlighting over 80 different varieties in all shapes and colors. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTheodore Haviland’s plates didn’t come with a specific variety name other than Rose, but it’s a beauty of a blossom for sure. Containing shades of blush, mauve, ballet pink, mulberry and ice pink set against light sage and dark grey-green leaves, it’s a soft, neutral color palette that blends so well with other mix and match floral dishware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Haviland family had a long history of creating exquisite patterns and designs. Interesting and unique as all creatives are, each member of the family brought their own celebrated aesthetic to the dishware industry across France, Germany and the United States.

The flowers themselves also look great paired with smaller sized rose patterns and help to create a full garden effect on the table with blooms in all shapes and sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo pretty for the spring and summer seasons as well as romantic Valentine’s Day dinners and Brit Box binge parties, it’s hard not to find an occasion in which these four would not be well-suited. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContemporary photo of the Queen’s Garden, Regents Park, London courtesy Bill Boaden. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e{SPECIAL FEATURES}\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Matching set of four luncheon plates\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Regents Park Rose pattern\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Each plate is stamped on back with maker’s mark\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e{CONDITION}\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn lovely vintage condition, these plates contain no cracks, chips, or staining.
