This charming three-tiered cake stand, imported directly from the UK, combines ceramic plates of different designs, making it a true embodiment of the British mix-and-match culture. The top tier features elegant plates made of pure white porcelain with beautiful scalloped edges, the middle tier features delicate pastel floral patterns, and the bottom tier features plates with warm yellow borders and small motifs.

This ingenious combination is the essence of British antiques. Rather than a perfectly matched set, the plates each have their own unique charm, creating a unique personality and story. Each plate may have been made in a different era or pottery, giving the impression of a long history of being loved as a set.

The central brass handle and fittings have a beautiful golden sheen, creating an elegant contrast with the white ceramic. The scalloped edges and decorative borders on each tier create delicate shadows depending on the light, creating a beautiful presence on the table.

This cake stand, which would have been used in a British home, has a worn look and the warmth that only a genuine antique can have.
