Description
This elegant vintage Royal Heidelberg tea cup and saucer features a dramatic gloss black exterior, richly embellished with hand-applied gold floral scrollwork and scalloped edging. The interior of the cup is decorated with romantic pink rose blossoms, framed by a broad gilt band that adds depth and contrast.
The saucer mirrors the cup’s opulence, with alternating reserves of floral decoration and gold-on-black botanical motifs, all finished with a scalloped, gilded rim. The gold is generously applied and remains vibrant, giving the set a refined, formal presence typical of continental European tea wares intended for display as much as use.
This is a true cabinet-quality piece, ideal for collectors of German porcelain, black-ground china, or richly gilded tea services.
