David Mellor British Standard mugs and espresso cups

David Mellor British Standard mugs and espresso cups

The British Colour Council was founded in 1931 in an attempt to standardise colours in use by government and industry throughout the UK. Official indexes of British Standard colours, each given its own colour name and number, began to be produced.

We have gone back to the early 1950s British Standard colours, with their wonderfully evocative period colour names, for our own contemporary collection of fine bone china espresso cups. The espresso cup itself, designed by Corin Mellor is exclusive to David Mellor Design.

Each espresso cup has a special colour-coded back stamp 'Designed using the British Standard Colour system' with the relevant colour name and number appearing on the espresso cup as part of the design. Suitable for microwaves and dishwashers.

New delivery expected early 2024. We sincerely apologise for this delay. You can register for stock updates on the individual product page.
