Art Deco Limoges Coffee Tea Dessert Set

About the Item

An Art Deco embellished china Dessert Set for Coffee or Tea from the company Vielle Abbaye in Limoges France. This set is impeccable and includes a large coffee or teapot, creamer, sugar, twelve cups and saucers, ten dessert plates and extra small saucers. The decorative element is in bright cobalt blue and gold in a jazzy geometric design. The use of gold trim gives it a special sense of luxury and evokes a time when coffee did not come in paper to-go cups and tea did not come in tea bags. Imagine bringing out a set like this at the end of a fine meal when entertaining at home or simply displaying it in a glass. The name Limoges is so well known that people often mistake it for a company or maker’s mark but its important to note that Limoges is an area of France with a source of legendary clay from which outstanding porcelain is made. Limoges is a region…and the number of manufacturers of fine china that flourished in the 1920s were nearly 50 different “brands”. Vielle Abbaye is a small hamlet surrounded by forests, cottages and churches. The porcelain works of Vielle Abbaye specialized in beautiful tea and coffee sets, with gilded accents in Art Deco and Art Nouveau styles.

  • Outstanding Unique Cubist Coffee/Tea Service H.L. Linton, Paris
    By HL Linton
    Located in Oakland, CA
    What a beautiful service this is, so many nice details. The French were great at designing and manufacturing these wonderful classic sets (a time gone by.) This particular one was designed and manufactured by H.L. Linton of Paris, each piece is stamped on the bottom and was made in England. The design is great, very cubist and somewhat asymmetrical (notice the elongated and angular shapes.) Not your typical French coffee service. Each piece has some very nice details with rosewood handles that have been delicately shaped in such a way to allow the cubist influence of the metal work desgin to stand out in very original way. Almost like a French cubist painting...
