I’d buy a psb fragrance. Eau de Neil and Chris. Something nice and woody. The packaging could be amazing. Unisex obviously.

They’re on a tea break…

Yeah they logged a fragrance brand with Companies House didn't they?

The market is awash with fragrances by musicians though and I don't imagine a PSB one being a huge seller. It might have been novel 10-15 years ago. Same with the shoe branding. New Order did a collab with Doc Marten - stunning boots, so I could get behind that I guess, but Doc Marten doesn't exactly scream PSB to me. As someone said, a cosy pair of slippers might be closer to the mark. :lol:

PSB have a track record for innovation - a tea-set is slightly bonkers but still feel it's pushing boundaries, and I'd hope to see more of the same thinking for this venture.

A Tea-Set Like That
Tea on my mind
You only tell me you love me when you're drinking tea
I Don't Know What You Want But I Can't Give Tea Any More
I Wouldn't Normally Do This Kind of Tea
Being Pouring

I’d imagine the tea set would have been expensive to produce so price is high but justified

What is up with people, like all acts they will have fans who £600-£1000 is peanuts, nobody has to buy it, but if you can afford it and want it you will, if not don't.
Where's the anger & angst coming from?. When Electric and Yes Limited vinyl came out i'd of love to have bought one but couldn't afford it!, so didn't. That's life.
People need to grow up and stop bloody whinging about everything FFS.

Hop on over to the Duchess China website shop and put together a similar order in a pattern of your choosing. The PSB full set at 600quid isn't out of line with anything else there.

Here's a similar Wedgwood set I put together. Pricing is more or less spot on.

Yeah, the price is right in line with true UK-made bone china tea sets (not imported factory-produced Chinese crap).

I think things like this are fun. No one is obligated to buy it, obviously. Loads of whiners around here! :)

Dreaming of the Queen
Visiting for tea
You, and her, and I
And Camomile

The Queen said “I’m aghast”
“You’re pouring it too fast”
However much I sighed
She fancied Chai
The pale kid that hides in the attic behind his PC...
