This exquisite Krone Porzellan espresso service captures the quiet poetry of European mornings: porcelain warmed by steam, tiny cups waiting patiently on their saucers, and the unmistakable aroma of moka rising through the room.
A rare, complete ensemble:
5 espresso cups
6 matching saucers
1 lidded sugar pot
Porcelain moka top with traditional aluminium base —
a beautiful union of elegance and function preserved from an era when coffee was a ceremony, not a habit.
The creamy porcelain body is adorned with deep cobalt blue florals — soft and nostalgic, yet confident in their simplicity.
Each piece carries the unmistakable signature of Krone Porzellan craftsmanship: refined, durable, and made to be held, not merely looked at.
Sizes (approx.)
• Espresso cups: 5 cm tall
• Saucers: 11 cm diameter
• Porcelain moka top: 22 cm tall
• Aluminium base: 16 cm diameter
• Sugar pot: ~7 cm height
Condition
Excellent vintage condition — porcelain is glossy and intact,
no chips, no cracks, and no loss of pattern.
The aluminium moka base shows only gentle, honest patina from age.
A note on rarity
Krone porcelain moka sets were never mass-produced.
Over time, most surviving sets became incomplete —
cups separated, saucers replaced, lids lost.
To find all original elements together is uncommon;
to find them in this condition is a small miracle for the collector
and for anyone who believes that coffee should be slow and beautiful. This piece has an attribution mark,
I am sure that it is completely authentic and take full responsibility for any authenticity
