AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Dresden 1890

If these glasses could talk, they would speak French with a slight German accent and quote poetry.

The year 1890 marks the height of decorative opulence. It is not just tableware, it is a status symbol. Owning a Dresden back then was the equivalent of having a custom-made Ferrari in your garage today, quieter and far more elegant. Only quieter and far more elegant.

The hand-painted flowers are not just "pictures." They are individual portraits of roses and peonies, created by artists who spent days on a single detail. The gold lace here is not just gilding, but a 22-karat whisper of the past.

This specific shape, characteristic of Dresden, was created to refract light, making the porcelain glow from within.

Imagine: six small scenes from a royal garden with different decors frozen in eternity. This set is for those who know that coffee is not just a caffeine necessity, but a sacred ritual filled with finesse.

Each of the six cups (the ideal 180 ml for long enjoyment) is a small canvas of true art. Here, the hand-painted decor is not just decoration, but a living floral symphony. The lush flowers bloom directly on the fine porcelain, and the delicate relief gives the cup a tangible texture - a pleasure not only for the eye, but also for the touch.

If modesty is a virtue, then these cups have chosen to be sinfully beautiful. The edges are wrapped in a profusion of gold lace, so detailed and delicate that it was probably woven by fairy jewelers under moonlight. This gold edging turns every sip into a formal reception, even if you're in your pajamas.

Saucers (15 cm): The perfect podium

for your cup. Wide enough to hold a small, sinful French macaron (or maybe two).

The shape: The curves of the relief are reminiscent of baroque opulence, making even the most ordinary instant coffee feel like an elixir served at Sanssouci Palace.

Six sets of pure bliss. Suitable for ladies with hats, gentlemen with taste.

6 cups 180 ml.
6 saucers 15 cm.

Snow-white porcelain, different motifs on the cups and saucers (strewn with colorful flowers)

Minimum remarks (unnoticeable) almost none.At least I haven't found one.

I am attaching a clip for you.

Whatever happens, you can always write to me! I always answer!

They will be carefully packaged and shipped!
