Mix & Match Blue Earthenware Brunch Set – Gien, England, Italy

A charming brunch or breakfast set, composed of antique white earthenware pieces with cobalt blue decoration. A superb mix & match uniting three iconic European origins: Gien, England, and Italy. The large plate and two saucers are signed Gien, decorated with romantic landscapes. The two English cups, also decorated on the inside, and the two large Made in England serving dishes evoke the famous Victorian transferware with its country and equestrian scenes. The small Made in Italy serving dish charmingly completes the set, accompanied by three unstamped but finely decorated cups in the same style. Each piece features a unique design: cottages, bridges, majestic trees, horse-drawn carriages, and countryside landscapes, in delicately nuanced blues. A harmonious blend of European traditions, ideal for creating a table full of character and poetry. Very good vintage condition; one of the serving dishes has a chip on the underside. Dimensions: 1 large Gien plate, 24 cm in diameter, 2 Gien saucers, 13.5 cm in diameter, 2 English cups with interior decoration, 10 cm in diameter and 6.5 cm in height, 2 Made in England serving bowls, 15 cm in diameter and 3.5 cm in height; 1 small Made in Italy serving bowl, 13 cm in diameter and 3.5 cm in height, and 3 unstamped cups with blue decoration, 7 cm in height and 9 cm in diameter for two, and 5 cm in height and 7 cm in diameter for the third. Perfect for a cottagecore, blue and white, or English country chic table.
