Black and gold bone china cup and saucer set

Description

Selected high-quality bone china with a high bone meal content offers a delicate and smooth texture. Even with its matte black glaze, the glaze’s sheen reveals a transparent, luminous quality. A gentle tap on the cup’s body reveals a clear, chime-like sound, a testament to its thinness, strength, and smoothness. This luxurious exterior imbues the dish with a durable core, ensuring a vintage aesthetic that will last a lifetime.

Hand-painted pink roses: The pink rose motifs on the cup and saucer are hand-painted by artisans. The petals are soft and natural, while the leaves are vibrant and lush. Against the matte black background, the vibrant yet harmonious color contrast creates a striking yet harmonious effect, reminiscent of a “rose blooming in the dark night.” Each flower’s form is uniquely handcrafted, infusing a sense of artistry into everyday objects.

Heavy gilding: Details such as the cup’s rim, spiral handle, tripod base, and saucer rim are all hand-gilded. The craftsman meticulously outlines and fills the porcelain with pure gold glaze. After high-temperature firing, the gold foil seamlessly blends into the porcelain surface, creating a “gilded brilliance” that resists oxidation and fading, maintaining its shimmering texture for a long time. The spiral handle is as dynamic as a sculptural piece, the three-legged base is vintage and solemn, and the wide-rimmed gold dish imbues the entire piece with the ceremonial feel of “palace tableware.” Every touch of gilding speaks to the luxurious heritage of European courts.

Color and Design: The matte black glaze base is accented with a contrasting hand-painted pink rose and gilded trim. The bold and sophisticated “black + pink + gold” color combination captures the rose’s soft romance while the contrast of black and gold exudes a royal-style opulence and grandeur. The cup body, in a vintage three-legged shape, features a delicate and flexible spiral handle, providing a comfortable grip and a strong visual impact. The wide gilded rim of the dish echoes the cup’s shape, creating a piece that resembles a piece from a 19th-century European court sideboard.

A Detailed Atmosphere: The delicate texture of the matte black glaze, the vibrant hand-painted roses, and the luxurious luster of the gilded elements blend seamlessly, creating a balance between a vintage and rich aesthetic and a romantic and vibrant feel. Displayed in any space, it possesses the eye-catching quality of a European antique.

Daily Ritual: Enjoy an Italian espresso in the morning. The black gold cup contrasts with the amber hue of coffee, and the roses, like a gentle embellishment in the dark night, add the luxurious elegance of a “palace breakfast.” In the afternoon, enjoy Earl Grey tea, watching the tea swirl in the bone china cup, paired with the French macarons on the plate, and you’ll instantly immerse yourself in an “aristocratic afternoon tea,” seemingly slowing down time.

Perfect for entertaining guests and as a collector’s gift: When friends visit, the hand-painted roses and gilded gold accents on these cups and saucers instantly become the centerpiece, adding a touch of sophistication to tea and refreshments, and imbuing casual conversation with a refined party atmosphere. As a collectible or gift, they’re perfect for lovers of vintage aesthetics (satisfying their desire for an antique-inspired collection) or those who cherish a refined aesthetic (embodying the spirit of “making everyday life into art”). Paired with a dedicated gift box, they further enhance the gift’s luxurious touch.

Designed for display: When not in use, they can be placed next to vintage cabinets or fireplaces. The combination of black and gold roses and gilded gold imbues the space with a vintage, luxurious feel reminiscent of a European palace, creating a distinguished and story-filled artistic embellishment within the soft furnishings.

The hand-painted roses and gilded details require gentle cleaning with a soft cloth or sponge, avoiding abrasive brushes.

Use a neutral detergent, avoiding harsh detergents, to protect the bone china glaze, hand-painted colors, and gilded finish.

Bone china should be protected from sudden changes in temperature. Avoid exposing a cup immediately to cold water after hot water, or placing it in a microwave or oven.

From the hand-painted “Dark Night Rose” to the luxurious gilded accents and the warm texture of the bone china base, this set of cups and saucers imprints the “luxurious genes of European courts” into everyday life, making every toast a cherished encounter with a time of vintage luxury.
