The Suprematist teapot and teacup, originally designed by the influential artist Kasimir Malevich, embody the essence of the Russian avant-garde. Crafted by the renowned Imperial Porcelain Factory in Saint Petersburg, this iconic design translates the radical geometry of Suprematism into a tangible and functional object.
This set is entirely made of high-quality white porcelain, which emphasizes the sharp, architectural lines of the design. The teapot is characterized by a striking, asymmetrical composition of cylinders and rectangles, while the accompanying teacup takes the shape of a hemisphere. The underside of both pieces bears the official stamps of Imperial Porcelain 1744 St. Petersburg, as well as an inscription in Cyrillic honoring the designer. The pure white finish reinforces the abstract and modernist character of the ensemble.
The porcelain is in excellent condition and retains its original, glossy finish. The structural integrity of both the teapot and the teacup is fully intact, without loss of the characteristic geometric precision. This collector's item reflects careful preservation and respects the historical value of the original design.
This sculptural dinnerware serves as a powerful statement within a minimalist or contemporary interior. It comes into its own particularly well as a decorative centerpiece in a display cabinet or on a sleek console, where the architectural forms enrich the space with a piece of tangible art history.
