Središnji sadržaj
The handmade and painted tea set is crafted in the Art Nouveau style. The white porcelain teapot features a lid, a profiled handle, and a spout. The surface of the teapot is adorned with stylised, gently twisted acanthus leaves along almost its entire height. The edges of the leaves are lined with a golden trim. In the middle of the teapot, there is a decoration depicting a branch with colourful flowers. The handle, lid, and spout are profiled and adorned with golden lines.
The pitcher has the same decoration as the teapot, that is, it also features a plastic decoration of stylised acanthus leaves and branches with colourful flowers. It has a slightly profiled handle and an opening articulated with an irregularly undulating line. The number 6246 is inscribed at the bottom.
Although there are no visible manufacturer’s marks on the tea set, either the teapot or the pitcher, they are of German production and by the renowned manufacturer Rosenthal. The company was established in 1879 in the town of Selb as a family business.
