Description from the seller
Antique Porcelain Egg Cruet with Six Matching Egg Cups – Hand-Painted Floral Decoration – Rococo Style – Circa 1880–1910
A charming and exceptionally delicate antique porcelain egg cruet, complete with its six matching egg cups, beautifully decorated with pink floral sprays, delicate enamel accents and fine gilded details.
The elegant circular stand features a richly scalloped rim, a raised pedestal base and a graceful openwork carrying handle. Particularly delightful are the small hand-painted birds and colourful floral motifs decorating the stand, adding a romantic and playful touch to this refined ensemble.
The six removable egg cups are crafted from fine white porcelain, with delicately fluted bodies, scalloped rims, pink blossoms and gold-trimmed edges.
Period and origin
Probably dating from the late 19th or early 20th century, circa 1880–1910, this ensemble reflects the Rococo Revival taste popular in European decorative porcelain.
Such elegant egg cruets were traditionally used to serve boiled eggs at breakfast, particularly in well-appointed households where even everyday dining was presented with refinement and attention to detail.
Today, this complete six-person set is equally appealing as a decorative centerpiece, a collector's item or an elegant addition to a traditional breakfast table.
Dimensions and weight
Overall height: approximately 15 cm
Stand diameter: approximately 18.5 cm
Egg cups: approximately 5.5 cm high × 4.5 cm diameter
Total weight: approximately 500 g
Complete ensemble: one stand and six removable egg cups
Condition
Very good antique condition. No visible chips or damage observed. Minor wear to the gilded decoration in places, consistent with age and careful use.
Please examine the photographs carefully, as they form an integral part of the description.
A beautifully preserved and highly decorative antique porcelain ensemble, combining delicate craftsmanship, romantic floral decoration and the elegance of traditional European tableware.
