Rare Vintage Vista Alegre Porcelain Factory white porcelain Demitasse Coffee Cups and Saucers from Portugal. This is a delicate set of 4 in a detailed classical early art deco pattern of orange glaze on pristine white with gold trim. The pattern and silhouette are distinctive of the early 20th century around 1920. Saucers have a 1/2 inch deep set center for the early 20th century modern look.
Cups are 2 3/8 inches tall x 2 3/4 wide including the handles. Saucers are1 inch tall x 4 1/4 inches wide. Cups in saucers sits 2 5/8 inches tall.
Founded in 1824, the Vista Alegre Porcelain Factory was the first industrial unit dedicated to producing porcelain in Portugal. The persistence of its founder, José Ferreira Pinto Basto, was instrumental to the launch and success of this daring enterprise.
A landowner, audacious merchant and distinguished figure in Portuguese society at the time, José Ferreira Pinto Basto wisely adopted the liberal ideas of the 19th century, having become “the first example of free initiative” in Portugal.
Today, Vista Alegre is part of the Portuguese heritage, boasting buildings of undeniable architectural interest, and a repository of social and artistic memories essential to the building of a Portuguese identity.
