ABOUT PRODUCTID 32866
The espresso cup and saucer from the Lacroix collection by Thomas (Rosenthal) showcases German design from the 1980s, where thick, high-quality porcelain with a smooth, glossy finish meets the precision of decorative detail. The cool white surface serves as a backdrop for refined gold accents: a slender rim on both cup and saucer and a gold-lined, angular handle. The wide, shallow saucer complements the slightly flared cup, while a hand-painted turtle in shades of brown, olive, and beige brings a touch of whimsy and individuality to the minimalist form. The whole set reflects mid-century modern influences with a distinctly German minimalist approach. There are no visible signs of wear, chips, or cracks. The condition is very good—the porcelain surface is clean and smooth, and all decorations are original. This cup echoes the tone of 1980s German modernism: functionality is balanced by a gentle sense of irony, as if the object suggests that everyday rituals can be both orderly and subtly playful. The gold details catch the morning sunlight, while the turtle—a symbol of patience—invites the drinker to pause amid the rush of daily life. The minimalist shape highlights the value of simple gestures, bringing a touch of discreet humor to the interior. The cup can be paired with other white porcelain or gold-accented tableware to create a cohesive, contemporary set. It would suit both a collector's mid-century ensemble and an eclectic interior where elements from different eras find new resonance. It is worth combining with plain glassware or minimalist decorations to accentuate its subtle character. This is an option for intimate coffee moments or for the daily espresso ritual in a home living room. The listed
