A charming and unique vintage set of two Pate Limoges porcelain mugs presented in their original brass carrying caddy. This collectible set features a captivating automobilia theme, with each mug finely decorated with an illustration of a classic car and its year.
The mugs showcase a detailed illustration of a Buick 1905 and an Opel 1898, appealing directly to vintage car enthusiasts and collectors of unique French porcelain. The crisp white porcelain is accented by a vibrant palette and finished with hand-painted gold gilt trim on the rims and bases, adding a touch of classic French elegance.
The set is held securely in a minimal, yet elegant brass wire caddy with a central handle, making it a perfect decorative accent for a Bar Cart, Library Shelf, or Office Desk in Traditional, Hollywood Regency, or Grandmillennial decor styles. The mugs are marked on the base, likely indicating a Pâte Limoges mark, known for its quality and collectible nature.
This is a fantastic and rare find, perfect for a collector of vintage Limoges, automobilia, or unique barware.
