About Us
Lace and Doily is a small family run business. We believe in helping you to create unforgettable memories.
Whether your event is an intimate afternoon tea with family and friends, or a larger sophisticated social gathering. Every moment can be beautiful and timeless with our Blue Italian range by Spode, the iconic collection which featured in the phenomenal period drama “Downton Abbey”.
So what are you waiting for? You too can enjoy a vintage afternoon tea with Lace and Doily.
PLANNING YOUR EVENT
Plan your quintessentially English tea party with vintage Victorian style. Elevate your table and be the hostess with the mostest or the host with the most. Create your own elegantly layered tea plate for a truly unique experience.
Dress your table with our crockery and add your own personal favourites, such as homemade scones with thick strawberry jam and lashings of clotted cream, dainty cucumber sandwiches, indulgent cakes, traditional pork pie, angel fancies, cranberry sausage rolls, chocolate treats, mini cheese scones with caramelised onion chutney, buttery cheese straws or even more gastronomic delicacies.
For a twist, be extravagant and decadent – replace the tea with summer cocktails and afternoon snifters such as Gin Lemon Tea, Earl Grey Prosecco Ginger Fizz, Vodka Elderflower or a simple Manhattan Iced Tea.

How To Order
For a traditional afternoon tea we suggest each guest has a cup & saucer with a teaspoon, a tea plate, cake fork and butter knife. Generally 3-4 people share a jug, a sugar bowl, a 2 tier-cake stand and a side serving plate for savouries or large sliced cake. We offer large teapots which can be shared by 3-4 guests and small teapots that suit for 2.
Additional items are available, such as silver sugar tongs, a wedding cake knife, clotted cream/pin plates, silver candelabras and small silver bonbon trays.
You might be planning a flamboyant special event whilst keeping an eye on the budget.
