Offered is an electro-plated silver-plate on brass tea set designed by V. Lorenzo Porcelli (American, b. 1933) for Dansk in the early 1980s at the height of the Memphis era. This design features the pillow top lids - so classically modern yet timeless. The set includes a sugar bowl, a creamer, a teapot, all with lids, and the rare find, a matching serving tray. This collection was most likely made with Rhodium plating over the silver-plate, making it extra sparkly and bright.
