ABOUT PRODUCTID 5015
This mocha cup and saucer, produced in the 1920s by the Schlaggenwald manufactory in Czechoslovakia, exemplifies high-quality porcelain craftsmanship in the spirit of Art Deco. The set is made from white glazed porcelain, almost entirely covered with an intense, mirror-like gold finish. Matte botanical and floral ornaments appear against this shimmering background, as well as zodiac signs set within shield-shaped cartouches, rendered in matte silver with black accents. The cup is characterized by a faceted, geometric body, a flared rim, and a distinct, stepped foot—features typical of the era’s design language—while the fully gilded, gracefully curved handle completes the effect. The saucer, with its gently raised center, mirrors the cup’s decorative motifs. The set remains in excellent condition—gilding and silvering are perfectly preserved, with no visible wear or damage. The form of this cup echoes the voice of the 1920s, when Art Deco fused refined taste with cosmopolitan flair. Gold and silver surfaces reflect light in a dramatic manner, while the zodiac emblems seem to invite conversation about time, destiny, and the transience of moments. Porcelain of this calibre allows one to sense the maker’s hand—precise and imaginative—transforming an everyday object into a symbol of its era, marked by optimism, faith in progress, and a fascination with ornament. Such a cup can become a focal point in a collector’s display cabinet or on a classic dark-wood
