About the Item
ABOUT
This elegant Modernist large six-piece sterling silver service for coffee and tea is of a superb workmanship and consists of a tray, a coffee pot, a tea pot, a hot milk or chocolate pot, a sugar bowl and a milk jar. The entire set, designed in period-specific sleek stream-lined esthetics, resting on a large tray of an unusual triangular shape with rounded corners; and fitted with exotic rosewood handles at either side. Three teapots (for tea, coffee and hot milk) are also of an unusual oval-cylindrical shape and are equipped with exquisitely shaped handles made of rosewood wood and hinged lids. The shape of the sugar bowl and milk jug ingeniously follows the shape of the tray, providing an extraordinary visual interest. As shown on the photo, the underside of all the pieces are fully hallmarked reading: Mexico, Sterling and 925 along with the maker's mark 'RN'. This sterling silver and rosewood coffee/tea service is beautifully crafted and ideal for use or display.
