Description from the seller

Superb double espresso coffee set, or tea, signed Robert Picault. An iconic ceramicist from the early 20th century in Vallauris (south of France). A great artist who collaborated with Picasso, Capron, and many of the leading artists of that period.
This set consists of 2 beautiful matching cups and saucers, with geometric designs in greens and blues on a white background. Glazed ceramics of stunning beauty and in excellent condition.
A sugar bowl with handles and lid, also in very good condition. Note a tiny chip under the lid, hence invisible. (See photo.)

All of its pieces are obviously signed and were handmade.

Rare set.
