AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Elegant set consisting of a coffee cup and a coordinating saucer signed by the famous luxury house Hermès, belonging to the rare and sought-after vintage collection "Animalia" (late 1990s).
Entirely made in fine Limoges porcelain (France), the set stands out for a refined monochrome decoration in navy blue on a pristine white background.
- The design, executed with extraordinary naturalistic precision, on the cup depicts a bird set in its marsh habitat, marshy for migratory birds, framed by a delicate blue profile along the edges.
Cup dimensions: diameter 7 cm, height 7.5 cm
- The saucer decor, named "Renard" (Fox), features a splendid naturalistic illustration in slate gray / blue tones (Ardoise), finely detailed, portraying a fox in its natural habitat.
Saucer dimensions: diameter 14 cm, height 1.5 cm
A collectible piece no longer in production, ideal for enriching an existing service or as a refined display object.
