Octagonal Porcelain Covered Tureen with Matching Platter

This is a vintage or antique porcelain table service ensemble consisting of a footed, octagonal covered tureen and a coordinating large oval platter. The pieces are constructed from fine white porcelain or bone china, featuring a delicate multi-color floral transfer-ware pattern characterized by red, blue, and yellow blossoms with green foliage. The tureen has a distinct eight-sided geometric form with a matching lid topped by a gilded rounded finial. Notable features include heavy gold-gilt rectangular loop handles on either side and hand-applied gold trim along the scalloped and faceted edges of both the bowl and platter. The style is reminiscent of early 20th-century craftsmanship (circa 1920s-1950s), often seen in European or Japanese export porcelain such as Noritake or MZ Austria. The condition appears well-maintained with clear glaze and vibrant colors, though some minor softening of the gilt on the handle edges is visible, consistent with moderate household use. No significant chips, cracks, or professional repairs are immediately apparent from the visual inspection. The presence of the faceted, octagonal design suggests an Art Deco influence on traditional floral dinnerware.
