AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Art Deco Service MZ Czechoslovakia – Cubism, 1920s/30s – Complete
For sale I offer a unique, collectible tea or coffee service made of the highest quality white porcelain. The set comes from the renowned Moritz Zdekauer (MZ) factory in Altrohlau (now Stará Role, Czech Republic).
The service is the quintessence of Art Deco / Czechoslovak Cubism. It is characterized by an extraordinary geometric form – the bodies of the teapot, sugar bowl, and creamer are faceted (tooled into lozenges), giving them a modern, sculptural look.
Manufacturer: MZ Czechoslovakia (signature used from 1918–1939).
Decoration: Stylized green botanical motif and elegant silvering (slightly worn) on the rims and handles.
