Fabulous Antique German Chocolate Cup & Saucer
This fabulous and very early, hand-painted German porcelain, double-handled chocolate cup and saucer are in amazing condition. Both pieces have a lovely quatrefoil, oval shape with scalloped rims, and are divided into four fabulous painted panels. They are beautifully hand painted in super detail with lovely colourful scenes of a courting couple against a white background and bunches of colourful flowers against a baby blue background. The various panels are divided up with wide ornate gilt borders, with the same gilt work around the edges. Both pieces have a blue, under glaze 'cross' factory mark on their bases, that I have been unable to trace, similar to the 'Meissen or Dresden' mark. The cup stands 8,1cm high, and measures 7cm x 8cm (11cm with handles), the deep saucer measures 14cm x 12,5cm x 3,5cm.
