Nearly one year on after making this listing, have a look at my entire collection of handmade cake stands so far, which makes the whole section of my shop "Handmade cake stands" via this link: https://www.etsy.com/shop/PoshandSeductive?section_id=17139573&ref=shopsection_leftnav_3
My intentions as a craftsman and great admirer of old English tradition of "afternoon tea", "cream tea", "nice cup of tea" in real style is to reintroduce back amazing tradition, which has been followed in Old Britain for centuries, but experiencing a bit of decline because of more comfortable "fast food", "plastic cup", "tea bag culture".
There are some very important issues, caused by this "invasion" and the most important one is the environmental issue. I am big supporter of "green living", reducing CO2 footprint supporter and try to do my bit, whenever I can to save our planet Earth. That is my philosophy of living and I am passionate to find more supporters and spread the idea among as many people as possible.
Closer to this particular cake stand. Pattern of plates, used to make it, is very famous and well loved. It's the reason behind the idea of many pottery and bone china makers were and continue using it these days. It's classic, it's sleek, it's clean and rich, and loved by many and list of advantages could carry on for pages.
Measurements as follow:
Bottom tier (large dinner plate) - 10" (about 26 cm) in diameter;
Second tier (middle sized deep bowl) - 8 (20.5 cm) in diameter;
Third tier (cake plate/bread&butter plate), which in retailer other listing makes middle tier is 6 3/4" (just over 17 cm);
Top tier includes the set of matching cup and saucer (6" in diameter just over 15cm and cup is 3" tall) which makes great finish of the Mad Hatter topper
Total weight of the entire cake stand (without any packaging) is 2 kg and it's just over 45 cm high.
By saying that and introducing it to my shop, I am always willing to make customised items towards your requests, using colours, plates, to match your existing patterns of table and dining ware, if they are still available to get and we are not short of time. I make my research and try to fit any budgets, but quality is always my paramount: it looks good, it lasts, it impresses, but on the other hand it is costly. So that is the point where mutual understanding has to be met and appreciated.
China used for this particular design is display vintage china so it is as brand new and haven't been used for serving food and quality and condition is superb.
I have great selection and choice of quality china to carry on my work. With certain samples of my work I will share links, where you can check pricing on vintage quality dining wear I use to make my items: it varies from £15-25 for dinner plate used as a bottom of the cake stand to £4-10 for tea saucer used for top tier of the stand.
I am willing to listen to your suggestion, as always and answer all your questions, regarding this listing and any question about my work in general and possible future customised orders.
