AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Elegant silver-plated metal coffee set, distinguished by a refined, classic style and particularly careful craftsmanship.
The set consists of a coffee pot with lid, a sugar bowl, and a milk jug, all sharing the same decorative design.
The vessels have rounded, slightly tapered bodies and stand on 4 finely decorated feet. The lids are topped with elegant finials featuring refined Art Deco-style floral ornamentation, while the gracefully shaped handles are embellished with curls and scrolls that give the ensemble a particularly decorative appearance.
The polished silver plating enhances the shapes and creates refined reflective effects.
There are no maker’s marks.
Excellent overall condition; the coffee pot has minor flaws in the silver plating. The photographs accurately reflect the actual condition of the items.
Measurements:
Milk jug 7 x 12.5 cm
Tray 32 cm
Sugar bowl 12 x 14 cm
Coffee pot 23 x 22.5 cm
Seller's Story
My name is Riccardo. I recently graduated in Art History from the University of Florence and I am passionate about porcelain. From tableware to artistic vases, from figurines to tea and coffee sets, I am fascinated by the mastery and creativity of great artisans and designers who manage to shape this fragile material, transforming a rough mass into masterpieces with a story to tell. During my years at university I began to become interested in the history of nineteenth- and twentieth-century tableware; today, every day, I deal with prestigious porcelain pieces that always have something to say to me and to those who purchase them. I love that every day I can discover more about the objects I find while traveling around Italy, always learning something new. I always try to convey to my clients this passion I have for the objects I sell, certain that each of them has a story to tell: that of the creator, that of the one who preserved it, and that of the person who will give it a new life.
