Porcelain Cup And Saucer With "warrior Attributes" Design, Empire/restoration Period
An antique porcelain cup and saucer, featuring a pink background accented with extensive gilding.
The cylindrical cup is adorned with panels featuring polychrome and gilded decoration: one, on a blue background, depicts a stylized lyre accompanied by neoclassical decorative elements, while the other features a remarkable trophy of arms consisting notably of a crested helmet, spears, and military regalia.
This type of decoration, combining military trophies, classical motifs, pink, and gold, fits perfectly with the neoclassical taste of the late 18th century or the first half of the 19th century.
The saucer has a small, long-standing chip on the reverse side of the rim, visible in the photographs.
Dimensions: cup height: 6.8 cm; saucer diameter: 14.5 cm.
