Pair of 19th century (Victorian era) antique porcelain bouillon cups from GDA (Gerard, Dufraisseix & Abbot), a prominent porcelain company in Limoges, France. Decorated with an olive-colored band and delicate floral gold design with lavish gilt overlay and gold detail on the inner rim against a background of bright white, delicate semi-translucent porcelain. The ear-shaped swirled handles are also heavily gilded.
These cups (in green) are the same form and decoration as the (raspberry-colored) gift from the Stephen Phillips Memorial Charitable Trust to the Historic New England Preservation organization.
Measurements (each cup): Height 2¼”, Width (handle to handle) 5”, Diameter 3½”
Condition: These cups are in exceptional antique condition. No chips, cracks or damage, and only minimal signs of use, wear or gold loss. Each piece is clearly marked on the underside with the GDA marks in use from 1868 to 1898.
