Coffee cups (6) (part of a service) 1775 - 1795

This coffee cup and saucer set, made in the Caughley Factory between 1775 and 1795, is a fine example of English porcelain. The delicate floral design, with sprigs of foliage and chains of beads, are painted in black and gold on a white background. These decorative elements, while not highly complex, are executed with meticulous detail and illustrate the artistry of the Caughley Factory, a significant producer of porcelain during the 18th century. The simple yet elegant design reflects the taste of the time, making this set a desirable piece for both art collectors and enthusiasts of ceramics.
