An elegant antique porcelain chocolate or coffee service comprising a covered chocolate pot with six matching cups and six saucers, beautifully decorated with delicate pink wild roses against a softly shaded blush pink and ivory ground with hand-applied gilt accents. The tall, graceful chocolate pot features an elongated form with an elegantly curved spout, beaded angular handle, and domed cover, all enriched with raised molding and restrained gilded ornament. Each cup and saucer repeats the floral decoration, depicting blooming wild roses and buds rendered in soft pinks and greens, creating a cohesive and refined presentation. The service reflects the refined decorative arts of the late Victorian to Edwardian period, when floral porcelain with subtle color gradients and delicate gilding adorned fashionable tea and chocolate services throughout Europe. The gentle pink wash, molded borders, and botanical transfers combine to create a charming example of turn-of-the-century tableware intended for intimate afternoon gatherings.

The service comprises: • One covered chocolate pot • Six cups • Six matching saucers A refined and decorative antique porcelain service that embodies the graceful aesthetics of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
