This Duchess China \u003cem\u003eTranquility\u003c\/em\u003e teapot feels made for exactly that. Introduced in the mid-1960s and quietly discontinued in 1994, the pattern has not been in production for over thirty years. This example, produced in the final window of manufacture between 1988 and 1994, is in mint condition — as though it has been waiting, patiently, for the right table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePattern 923 is a study in restrained English elegance: sprays of blue forget-me-not blooms, soft pink buds, and green foliage arranged on a pure white fine bone china body, finished with a classic gold gilt trim along the scalloped edges, spout, and handle. The generous six-cup capacity makes this a considered addition to a Duchess China collection, or a graceful replacement piece for anyone completing a \u003cem\u003eTranquility\u003c\/em\u003e service — and a genuinely lovely pot for everyday use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e Duchess China, Longton, Stoke-on-Trent, Made in England\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePattern:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eTranquility\u003c\/em\u003e (923) — discontinued 1994\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEra:\u003c\/strong\u003e Final production c.1988–1994 (pattern introduced mid-1960s)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCapacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.14 litres (6 cups)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15cm tall | 24cm handle to spout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fine bone china\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMint condition.
