AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A stunning antique porcelain tea set from the well-known Bohemian manufacturer Union K (Union Porzellanfabrik) from Klášterec nad Ohří (Klösterle). This set dates from the 1920s/30s (the heyday of Art Deco) and is in a particularly beautiful condition.
The dinnerware is executed in the very rich, classic Imari style. The deep blue and warm red-ochre/iron-red colors are combined with refined gold details along the rims and in the graceful pattern and wide rim model. An absolute eye-catcher on a chicly laid table, for a high tea or in the china cabinet!
Manufacturer: Union K (Vereinigte Porzellanfabriken AG), marked with the original green crown mark on the underside of the cups.
Origin: Made in Czecho-Slovakia.
Period: Circa 1921 – 1939 (Art Deco / Interbellum).
Decoration/Model: Handwritten number 36 on the underside.
10 teacups + 10 accompanying saucers (complete set for 10 people).
The colors are still beautifully fresh and intense.
The teacups:
Diameter (top edge, excluding handle): about 8 cm to 8.3 cm; height about 4.4 cm to 5 cm
Saucers diameter about 14 cm to 14.5 cm
