About MeThe Royal Wemyss Commemorative Ware, which was produced between 1880 and 1911, included a range of coronation cups and goblets. In 1896, the Fife Pottery added its contribution to the national celebration of 60 years of Queen Victoria’s accession to the throne with a splendid array of carefully painted special cups and goblets. This Victoria goblet is decorated with roses, thistles, and shamrock with a crown above the cipher.
