Coffee set for 6 (12) - Porcelain - Japanese Coffee Service

Vintage Japanese Coffee Service in Fine Iridescent Porcelain - 6 Servings - 1950s Magnificent coffee (or fine tea) service for 6 people, in fine Japanese porcelain, dating from the mid-20th century (circa 1950-1960). This Lustreware-style set (glossy porcelain) is distinguished by its magnificent iridescent glaze with apricot and peach reflections, which responds superbly to direct light. The pattern is entirely hand-painted and features a traditional Japanese landscape: a Geisha in a traditional kimono in front of a thatched-roof pavilion, with stylized Mount Fuji in a blue background and delicate floral compositions. The underside of the pieces is unmarked, typical of post-war artisanal productions intended for export. The set includes 12 pieces: • 6 coffee cups • 6 matching saucers Very good vintage overall condition. The porcelain is intact, with no cracks or major chips. Note slight signs of wear or minor losses on the gilding and the painted decorations, quite normal for pieces of this age and a testament to their artisanal authenticity. (Please carefully observe the photos which are an integral part of the description).
