Bury St Edmunds Abbey bone china cup has been designed from original artwork by Emily Ward. All cups are printed and hand pressed in Emily's studio in the North East.
Emily’s vibrant artwork beautifully captures the timeless grandeur of Bury St Edmunds Abbey on a glorious summer's day.
The magnificent abbey stands proudly at the heart of this bone china cup, its warm golden stonework glowing in the sunshine while its impressive tower rises high into a brilliant blue sky. Soft, wispy clouds drift overhead, and playful splashes of pink, yellow and white add a joyful feel.
A colourful meadow of delicate wildflowers in shades of pink, white and buttery yellow sway gently amongst the lush green grass, in front of this historic Suffolk landmark.

Bury St Edmunds Abbey
Located in the heart of Bury St Edmunds in Suffolk, Bury St Edmunds Abbey was one of the wealthiest and most important Benedictine monasteries in medieval England. Founded in 1020 by King Cnut (Canute), it was built to house the shrine of Saint Edmund, the Anglo-Saxon King of East Anglia, whose remains attracted pilgrims from across the country.
Although much of the abbey
now stands as impressive ruins, it remains a Scheduled Monument set within the beautiful Abbey Gardens. The site played a significant role in English history, with the barons believed to have gathered here in 1214 to swear an oath that eventually led to the sealing of the Magna Carta.
Today, the magnificent ruins provide a fascinating glimpse into the abbey's former grandeur and remain one of Suffolk's most treasured historic landmarks.
