This set of five espresso cups with matching saucers dates back to the 1960s and is distinguished by its striking fat lava glaze. The characteristic deep red and brown color scheme lends the pieces an expressive, organic aesthetic typical of ceramic design from this era.
Made of glazed ceramic, the cups and saucers have a glossy surface that beautifully reflects light. The interiors of the cups are a contrasting white, which further accentuates the rich colors of the exterior. The compact shape is ideal for enjoying espresso and reflects the functional elegance of mid-century design.
The set is in good condition, commensurate with its age and use. The glaze displays the texture and depth typical of fat lava ceramic, giving each piece its own unique character.
These espresso cups will be a perfect addition to an interior featuring vintage or mid-century modern elements. They add a warm, colorful touch to any coffee table and pair well with simple, modern tableware.
