Royal Doulton "Darjeeling (H5247)"

Royal Doulton Darjeeling (H5247) is every bit as refined as the name suggests. The design combines a delicate peach floral border with a clean white centre and gold-coloured edging, giving it a smart, graceful look suited to formal dining and tea ware.

Darjeeling has the lighter, prettier feel of a fine Royal Doulton table service rather than a heavy decorative pattern. The narrow border keeps the design elegant and controlled, while the warm peach tones and gilded finish give it enough detail to feel special on the table.

Patterns of this type were made for a fuller table setting, with dinner, tea and serving pieces forming the useful core of the range. When matching Darjeeling, the H5247 pattern number, peach floral border, white ground and gold-coloured trim are the main details to compare.

As a discontinued Royal Doulton pattern, Darjeeling is usually chosen by customers looking to replace a broken item, extend a fine dining service or add useful pieces to an existing set. Availability depends on what comes back into the pre-loved market, so individual pieces may appear only occasionally.
