This tea set is handcrafted ceramic with a mottled, mottled glaze and a stylized floral and vegetal design, all hand-painted.
The pieces date from the Mid-Century period, the 1950s-1960s, corresponding to the golden age of the Vallauris workshops.
The set is guaranteed authentic by an engraved "Vallauris fait main" stamp on the base and the handwritten inscription "Décor main" (Hand-painted decoration).
The set is generously sized, including large "breakfast" cups and a spacious teapot. The pieces are stackable for convenient storage.
