A family’s set of dishes has passed through five generations of women, but will the teacups, plates and bowls make it to a sixth? The bowl, specifically used to serve berries, is part of a set of fine china that has been in her family for over a century. For over a century, this set of fine china has been handed down from woman to woman in the same family. Of all the pieces that were eventually broken in the china set, the teacup has the most delicate seal. A correction was made on Jan. 1, 2025: An earlier version of this article incorrectly named the first woman to own the china set as Gertrude.
