描述
- coffee pot 27cm., 10 5/8 in. high
comprising: teapot, chocolate pot, coffee pot, hot milk jug (cover absent), sugar bowl and cream jug; in the rococo style, carved ebonised wood leaf-capped scrolling handles, engraved with the Bourbon Parma coat-of-arms, in a fitted green silk and velvet lined wooden case
Condition
All pieces clearly marked to the upper bodies. Both the hot water/milk jug and the chocolate pot are slightly pressed in at each foot and lean a little. The former possibly had a cover at one point but there is no sign of a missing hinge. Good heavy gauge. Nice crisp coats-of-arms. The fitted case in good order but for two splits running through the top and some scuffed corners. Good overall
