Decorative porcelain coffee/tea service set (coffee pot and creamer/pitcher)
Estimated Value
$40-$120 for the pair, depending on maker, completeness, and condition
A matching porcelain coffee or tea service consisting of a tall lidded coffee pot and a smaller matching creamer or pitcher. Both pieces are white with a glossy glaze and feature a stylized modernist decoration in black, red, and fine dotted accents. The forms are elegant and slightly asymmetrical, with flared rims, curved handles, and sculptural spouts. The design suggests mid-century decorative tableware rather than a formal antique service. No maker's mark is visible in the provided image, so attribution remains uncertain.
