About this seller
ProfessionalProduct description
In the post-war years, French tables changed. Forms became lighter, decorations more understated, but certain habits endured. Fine porcelain, a few touches of gold, and the care taken with items presented to guests. The design is pared down to the essentials. Bright white porcelain, a line of remarkably deep cobalt blue, then gold highlighting the contours. No flowers, no medallions, no superfluous ornamentation. Everything relies on the quality of the proportions and the very classic harmony of these three colors. The shape of the cups has more character than it appears. Taller and narrower than tea cups, they feature a gently rounded body ending in a small annular foot, a detail that slightly detaches them from their saucer and refines their silhouette. The round and generous handle balances this almost cylindrical shape. Beneath the pieces, the "Porcelaine d'Art, Limoges France" stamp indicates their origin. Since the discovery of kaolin near Limoges in the 18th century, the city has built a true industrial and artistic expertise around porcelain, passed down from one manufacturer to another. This set belongs to the period, when Limoges progressively abandoned the decorative abundance of older sets to adopt lines better suited to 20th-century interiors. The cobalt and gold lend it a timeless quality. Set of 8 pieces.
