ABOUT PRODUCTID 11505
This cup and saucer set from 1930s Germany is crafted from porcelain in an ivory white shade with a gentle yellowish undertone. The surfaces are adorned with carefully placed, multicoloured floral bouquets in pink, purple, yellow, green, and blue. Both the cup and saucer feature finely scalloped rims accentuated by a thin, hand-applied gold trim. The handle, designed in a distinctly baroque manner, displays intricate sculptural curves and is also highlighted with gilding. The high-gloss finish enhances the depth of detail and the noble interplay of colours. The porcelain is smooth and evenly glazed, with no visible cracks or chips—only minimal wear to the gilding on the rims and handle, reflecting age and careful use. The set is preserved in very good condition, characteristic of well-maintained pieces from this era.The cup seems to tell a story of pre-war Europe, where everyday life was imbued with ritual and a sense of decorum. Baroque influences, evident in the ornate handle and gilded edges, evoke the intimate setting of elegant parlours—spaces where tea was an occasion for conversation and the celebration of small moments. The floral motifs, set against the creamy porcelain ground, conjure memories of bygone gatherings and quiet gestures around the table, while the wavy edge hints at the subtle ease and finesse of fine craftsmanship.This set could serve as a striking accent on a display shelf or console table, especially when combined with other porcelain pieces from the 1920s and 1930s. It would suit eclectic, classic, or collector’s interiors with a romantic touch. Pairing it with crystal stemware, an embroidered tablecloth, or a single sprig of flowers would further emphasise the historical and decorative character of this baroque-inspired piece.
