On October 25, 1945 President Harry S. Truman issued Executive Order 9646, which officially defined the Presidential Coat of Arms and Seal for the first time. An eagle’s head, which originally faced right toward a bundle of thirteen arrows held in its talons, was turned to face left toward the olive branch it held, symbolizing peace. Since 1945, the only changes made to the seal were the additions of the 49th and 50th stars.

This fine bone china teacup and saucer is made in Stoke-on-Trent, the traditional heart of the English pottery industry. With a team of master craftsmen and women, we continue to produce the very best fine bone china, using traditional methods passed down through generations. Each piece is finished with liquid gold accents, using the finest of brushes. Given the hand-made nature of these pieces, every piece is unique.
