Coffee pot c. 1950 - 1960

This mid-20th-century silver tea set, housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, is a striking example of decorative artistry in metalwork. The set features a teapot, creamer, sugar bowl, and two serving pots, all resting on a decorative oval tray. The surfaces of the pieces are elaborately engraved with a floral motif, adding a layer of elegance to the gleaming silver. This anonymous work, crafted between 1950 and 1960, exemplifies the enduring appeal of traditional craftsmanship in the realm of tableware.
