Coffee set. Enameled porcelain. Royal Vienna, Austria, early 20th century. With marks on the base of the pieces. Two cups broken. Enameled porcelain coffee set consisting of a tray, six cups and saucers, a sugar bowl with lid and a jug with lid. Although the classicist influence in the piece is clear (golden garlands, shapes, plant elements, colours, etc.), it is necessary to point out that the tray was inspired by the oil painting by George Sheridan Knowles in 1908 and entitled “Summer Pleasures on The River”. Royal Vienna is a certain style of porcelain related to the porcelain made in Vienna (Kaiserlich privilegierte Porcellain Fabrique) founded in 1718 by Claude du Paquier, an official of the imperial court in Vienna. It was closed in 1864, but its name was recovered by the Vienna Porcelain Factory Augarten in 1923.
