ABOUT PRODUCTID 38709
The Windsor espresso cup and saucer, crafted in the 1950s at the renowned porcelain factory in Karlovy Vary, Czechoslovakia, is a refined interpretation of European mid-century modern design. This set features a thin-walled, tulip-shaped cup and a gently scalloped saucer. Both pieces are finished in a cool, muted turquoise blue with a subtle gloss on the exterior, contrasted by the crisp, clean white of the cup's interior and the saucer's central well. Hand-applied gold gilding accents the rims, the cup’s foot, and the elegantly curved handle, as well as the edge of the saucer, enhancing the sense of lightness and sophistication. The porcelain is flawlessly smooth, delicate, and lightweight. Condition: very good, with no cracks, chips, or wear to the gilding – all details are intact and lustrous, preserved in collector’s condition.This cup echoes the postwar optimism and understated pleasure of daily rituals. Its geometric lightness and golden details speak to an era that sought harmony and modernity while cherishing the tradition of refined table culture. The porcelain—like a breath of fresh air—evokes the atmosphere of gatherings in elegant 1950s salons and cafés. The smooth surface and soft blue suggest calm, while the gold accents recall an attention to detail that once defined the class of such objects.The set would work
