The black and white porcelain set consists of: A large serving tray, 2 demitasse cups with saucers, and an espresso pot with a lid. ALL pieces are signed on the bottom with the original Ceramica Franco Pozzi insignia dating it to the 1960s.

NOTE: This design has been attributed to Gio Ponti, but we cannot guarantee that, but this espresso set is truly quite rare and hard to find.

VERY GOOD CONDITION.
1. The coffee pot and lid is flawless.
2. The two demitasse cups are in good condition with a small repair on one cup.
3. One of the saucers has a minor repair on the edge with some very minor hair-line cracks underneath the saucer where the repair is.
4. The other saucer is perfect.
5. The serving tray has crazing (small crackling to the glaze...common with pieces this old) and there is a small repair to a minor chip on the side of the tray.

PLEASE NOTE: This amazing espresso set is guaranteed authentic to the period and has some typical vintage ware commensurate with age. Please take a look at the condition report and photos carefully as there are repairs. If you must have perfect, this is not the set for you, BUT as you can see from the photos this espresso set is still in very good representing condition. Keep in mind it's about 60 years old.
