ABOUT PRODUCTID 19334
This cup and saucer set, produced in Czechoslovakia in the 1950s, embodies the Central European interpretation of the Art Deco style that found its way into everyday postwar homes. The dominant, richly saturated pink porcelain with a lustrous gloss contrasts with the crisp white interior of both the cup and the bottom rim of the saucer. A fine gilded line accentuates the edge of each element, while the sculpted, gilded handle—evoking the organic motifs of Art Nouveau—softens the structured symmetry typical of Art Deco. The cup is broad and shallow, and the saucer features a gentle depression and soft, scalloped edge to balance the composition. The porcelain surface is consistently polished and smooth without any chips, cracks, or marks of intensive use. The set remains in excellent condition, showing no signs of restoration or significant wear.This cup captures the spirit of the 1950s, a time when the optimism of postwar renewal expressed itself in vivid color and the decorative quality of even the most utilitarian objects. Its gleaming pink finish reflects the aura of a dawn-lit café, where conversation finds a lighter tone, and the gold detailing becomes a piece of personal jewelry. The gilded, sculptural handle is a quiet nod to an era when everyday rituals were enhanced by fine craftsmanship and visual harmony.The set could be combined with other mid-century porcelain pieces or with simple, white tableware on a linen tablecloth. It may be paired with pastel ceramics, silver sugar bowls, or colored glass v
