Sevres Styled Pedestal Demitasse Cup and Saucer
This is a fine porcelain demitasse cup and matching saucer, featuring a sophisticated pedestal or 'footed' design. The set is crafted from high-quality white translucent porcelain, decorated in a style reminiscent of 18th-century Sevres porcelain. The base color is a distinctive turquoise or 'celeste blue' which covers the pedestal foot of the cup and the main body of the saucer. The upper portion of the cup is white, adorned with delicate hand-painted floral swags in pink, blue, and green, suspended from a gilded rim. The cup features a scroll-form handle heavily gilded in gold leaf. The saucer is embellished with an intricate gold filigree or lace-like pattern around the rim with central gold accents. Stylistically, this appears to be a 19th-century Neo-Classical or Rococo Revival piece. The craftsmanship is evident in the fine details of the floral work and the precision of the gilding. Visible condition appears good with minor rubbing to the gold accents on the saucer rim and pedestal, consistent with age and gentle use. No significant chips, cracks, or repairs are immediately visible in the provided image.
