Delicate tea service (or other!) from the prestigious bernardaud factory in limoges, made of green paste (tinted celadon green and not white as usually produced in limoges) and patterns in imitation of the precious chinese porcelain formerly imported by the company of india. All the pieces, included on the underside of the cups are stamped b & c (company), the 'green paste' cartridge dates them between 1920 and 1927. Everything is in perfect condition for these centenarians (no cracks, no hair or wear patterns, gilding in very good condition, note for the shape: a micro missing of 1 mm under the base below the cream pot, invisible when placed upright these repeated patterns of flowers and insects (butterflies). ) are - if you observe carefully - all arranged differently depending on the pieces, which adds greatly to their delicate charm. No name found for this unusual service, the colors and floral motifs would be closest to the pondicherry model of later creation., without insects found on chinese porcelain, and which has blue lines and not gray as here weight approximately 2.6 kg - 6 cups and their saucer - 1 pot - 1 sugar bowl and its lid - 1 teapot, without. Lid 2 separate batches of 2 additional cups are available in my store (i.e. 10 cups in total on sale) single shipping costs if purchasing additional cups, select 'home delivery' for additional cups.
