Description: In all my years of antiquing, I’ve never seen anything quite like this. It’s hard to find more than a teacup and saucer in a set or an individual salt and pepper….but to find these complete dessert/tea settings is quite rare. After careful consideration regarding what you might enjoy as a buyer and trying to be sensible about shipping, selling this by the individual setting seems to be the best result. Each piece is hand painted with lovely pink and yellow roses with heavy gold gild trim work. Shaded backgrounds of pale blue and pink highlight each piece. Each cup and plate really is a small work of art. Isn’t it totally cool that there is an individual salt & pepper for each place setting? There is a total of five of these place settings for sale. The pieces are all in excellent condition with no repairs, cracks or chips. They do have the patina and wear that comes with being over 100 years old. All the hand painting is intact and these have been well cared for. Some of the salt & peppers are missing the small corks on the bottom. Included in each 8 piece setting: 1) Pedestal/footed dessert or sherbet cup 3” tall 2) Custard/dessert cup 1.75” tall 3) Dessert plate 6” 4) Double handle tea cup 4” across 5) Single handle tea cup 3” across 6) Demitasse cup 2.5” across 7) Saucer 5.5” 8) Salt & Pepper 1.75” tall (green pedestal used in display photos not included) Most of the pieces are stamped O. & E.G. for Oscar and Edgar Gutherz of Austria or J & C Bavaria for Jaeger and Co. Ovid Bavaria, circa 1889-1918. Yet others bear the mark TK Czechoslovakia (after 1918 and the end of WWl when country names and borders changed). Pieces can be the same pattern despite the mismatched backstamps. Manufacturers often changed their marks over time as company sales, mergers and military wars happened. I will be listing this week additional china in this pattern, more dessert cups and smaller tea settings, so please check my other items for sale. You can bid with confidence, please see my eBay rating. Thanks.
