Description from the seller
Dresden, 1890 g.
The year 1890 marked the pinnacle of decorative opulence. This is not merely tableware; it is a symbol of status. Owning Dresden porcelain back then was akin to having a custom-made Ferrari in one's garage today-only quieter and far more elegant.
The hand-painted flowers are not simply "pictures." They are individual portraits of roses and peonies, created by artists who would spend days perfecting a single detail. The gold lacework here is not just gilding, but a 22-karat whisper from the past.
This distinctive shape, characteristic of Dresden ware, was designed to refract light, making the porcelain seem to glow from within.
The edges are enveloped in lavish gold lace-so intricate and delicate that it might well have been woven by fairy jewelers under the light of the moon. This golden trim turns every sip into a formal affair, even if you're wearing your pajamas.
The saucers (15 cm): The perfect stage for
your cup. Spacious enough to hold a small, sinful French macaron (or perhaps two).
The shape: The contours of the relief evoke
Baroque opulence, making even the most ordinary instant coffee feel like an elixir served at Sanssouci Palace.
The cups-perfectly sized at 180 ml for a leisurely, enjoyable experience-serve as a small canvas for true art. Here, the hand-painted design is not merely decoration but a living floral symphony.
Lush blossoms bloom directly onto the fine porcelain, while delicate relief work lends the cup a tangible texture-a delight for both the eyes and the touch.
4 sets with different patterns on the saucers and cups.
Minor signs of wear, as shown in the photos (normal for items over 130 years old). Nevertheless, they are in excellent condition
