Vintage Hand Painted Cocoa Set 9pcs Bavaria Porzellanfabrik Tirchenreuth

Vintage early 1940s hand painted and signed cocoa service/set 9 pieces marked Porzellanfabrik Tirchenreuth Bavaria.

We are very pleased to be able to offer for your consideration this beautiful vintage porcelain cocoa service/set.

The mark on the bottom of this cocoa service/set is that of Porzellanfabrik Tirchenreuth of bavaria. The pieces in this set are all high fired porcelain. The pieces in this set are hand painted and signed. 

The signature reads "Guillaume" the pattern is a beautiful rendering of clusters of peaches, and peach blossoms, surrounded by leafs, on a field of mostly green. All the pieces are accented with a bright gold lustre. The Gold lustre application looks to be a combination of hand painted, on the handles, and transfers on the cup, and plate, rims. There is also some, transfer applied, gold lustre on the foot of the cocoa pot, and the rim of the cocoa pot lid. 

There is included in the set, four small spoons (three matching). Three of these spoons are marked "Sterling" and carry the Paye & Baker logo, P & B,1906-1960 North Attleboro, Mass. The fourth spoon has an undecipherable hallmark, but it too is marked "Sterling"..

The cocoa pot stands approximately 10 1/8 inches tall, and roughly 5 inches in diameter at the widest section. The saucers are approximately 4 7/8 inches in diameter. The cups are approximately 2 5/8 inches tall, 2 3/8 inches in diameter at the top rim, and approximately 1 1/2 inches in diameter at the base. All together this set weighs approximately 2 3/4 pounds.

Condition- The overall condition of this set is very good. There is one issue we must mention, one of the cups looks to have been broken and repaired (See picture provided). The only other issue we feel should be mentioned is that the Cocoa pot and the cups are each signed, the plates are not. The plates look to have transfer patterned decoration, but they are clearly matched pieces, the design created by the same hand.

If you collect Bavarian/German porcelain, this cocoa set will make a beautiful addition to any collection.
