Clarence Bone China, Made in England, Teacup: 56,700 ppm Lead.
For context, the amount of lead that is considered unsafe in newly manufactured items intended for use by children is anything 90 ppm Lead or higher in the paint, coating or glaze.
Antiques and vintage items are not regulated and when selling them (in most cases) it is not required to mark them as containing lead (and being potentially hazardous) as it is required with many newly manufactured items.

Just looking in my China cabinet and decided to look this cup up for value. Found your website. Forgot about the lead issue. I have cup 831/74. Since it’s unsafe for sipping tea, is it safe to handle at all? I could repurpose it simply for decor…
