AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Elegant Unmarked Fine Porcelain Tea Service – Possibly Limoges – Gold Gilded Monogram – 29 Pieces
This is a high-quality, unmarked fine porcelain tea service of exceptional fineness and translucency, strongly advised to be Limoges (the quality and finish fully support this attribution). The elegant white porcelain is decorated with delicate gold gilding on all rims, handles, and spouts, plus a beautiful ornate gold monogram (stylised intertwined letters/crest, likely a family monogram) prominently featured on every piece. A classic, timeless design that would grace any table or collection.
10 cups – Height 6.3 cm, diameter 7 cm
8 saucers – Diameter 12.5 cm
10 plates – Diameter 20 cm
1 teapot (with lid) – Height 16 cm (including lid)
Condition (honest and detailed – please see all photos):
Cups: 6 in very good condition with excellent gilding and clear monograms (one of these has a very small chip); the remaining 4 show some wear to the gilding and monogram.
Saucers: 5 in good condition with only light wear to the gilding; 3 have small chips to the underside (clearly visible in photos).
Plates: All 10 in good condition with only slight wear to the gilding.
T
eapot: Monogram and gilding in good condition with only minor wear. There is a hairline crack and a very small chip at the tip of the spout, plus a small chip inside the pot where the lid sits. The lid is undamaged.
The porcelain itself is in excellent overall condition for its age – no major cracks, stains, or discolouration. The wear is consistent with normal use and is typical for vintage pieces of this quality.
A lovely partial service that still offers plenty of pieces for tea service or decorative use.
Ideal for collectors of fine European porcelain, Limoges enthusiasts, or anyone looking for elegant vintage tableware with beautiful hand-applied gold detailing.
