Description from the seller

Antique / Historicism Tea Cup and Saucer, richly gilded with Baroque / Paisley pattern and floral painting

Fine white porcelain with a fluted / wavy edge. The cup has a segmented foot with curved notches and a gilded handle. The decoration consists of elaborate gloss- and matte-gold gilding, scrollwork cartouches in the Paisley- and snail-motif style with lilac-pink punk stars, as well as finely hand-painted colorful flower bouquets (including roses and scattered flowers). The inner rim of the cup is broadly gilded.

Manufacturer: Unknown / Not on market (no manufacturer marks visible on the bottoms of the cup and saucer). Likely a Thuringian, Bohemian, or South German porcelain manufactory.
Origin country: Germany (Thuringia/Bavaria) or Bohemia (Austria-Hungary).
Era / Period: About 1880–1910 (late 19th century to turn of the century).
Style: Historicism / Neo-Rococo (Rococo revival).
Technique: Glazed porcelain, hand painting (flowers), gilding (gloss and matte gold with engraving/overlay).
Measurements
Cup: height approx. 6.5 cm | width with handle approx. 10.7 cm | top diameter approx. 9.1 cm
Saucer: height approx. 1.6 cm | diameter approx. 13.9 cm
Condition

The gilding and the painted colours show light age-related wear at the rims and handle zones.
Age-appropriate good condition with slight gold wear at the rims and handle zones as well as manufacturing tiny burn points inside the cup.
On the base foot, there are manufacturing irregularities as well as slight darkening/soil traces in the unglazed area (kiln cracks / glaze cracks visible at the foot ring).
No visible chips or sustained cracks at the lip or the mirror.
The set will be securely packed for transport and shipped insured."
