Moustiers " Cléry ", French Faience Hand-painted Tea / Coffee Service, 27 Pieces

Elegant and charming French hand-painted coffee service by Cléry of Moustiers, France, dating from the mid-20th century. This refined 27-piece set is beautifully decorated with vibrant flying birds inspired by traditional Moustiers faience, complemented by delicate blue floral motifs and graceful ochre scrollwork. The warm cream-colored earthenware body, enhanced by subtle fluted shaping and hand-painted blue edging, gives the ensemble a timeless Provençal elegance.

Each piece is individually hand-painted, making every element unique and showcasing the artisanal craftsmanship associated with the famous Moustiers ceramic tradition. The lively bird decoration adds both color and movement while remaining delicate and sophisticated.

The service comprises 12 cups and 12 matching saucers, together with a tall lidded coffee pot, a lidded sugar bowl, and a cream jug, for a total of 27 pieces. The underside is marked “Cléry — hand painted — France.”

This beautiful set would make a wonderful addition to a French country home, a faience collection, or an elegant breakfast or coffee table setting. Both decorative and functional, it perfectly captures the charm and craftsmanship of traditional French pottery.

The service remains in very good vintage condition with light wear consistent with age and use.
