Beautiful Five Piece Tea Set from The Watson Company, Attleboro, Massachusetts ca. 1940 "Meadow Rose" Pattern. A truly fine, five piece coffee/tea set from an American silversmith company, the Watson Company of Massachusetts. The company was founded in 1874, enjoying a fine family tradition, until it was sold/acquired by R. Wallace & Sons in the Mid-1950s. All five pieces are hallmarked with the crown, "W" and lion, instantly recognizable as the respected mark of Watson. This tea set is in their "Meadow Rose" pattern and is without monograms. Included is a coffee pot 10½ x 10 x 5", a tea or hot water pot 8½ x 10 x 5½", sugar bowl with lid 7 x x7 x 4½" a waste bowl 4 x 4 x 4" and creamer 5 x 6 x 3½". The set was extremely well cared for passing onto two generations. One of the best tea sets we have offered in some time with respect to the pattern and condition.
