• Lidded Teapot
• Creamer
• Lidded Sugar Bowl
• Covered Butter Dish

The color is a luminous yellow-green chartreuse with subtle tonal variation throughout — far more dimensional and sophisticated than olive. The glaze pools beautifully along the edges, highlighting the faceted forms and sculptural silhouettes.

The teapot features a distinctive hexagonal body with beaded detail along the lid collar and a refined, architectural spout. The sugar bowl has gently scalloped edges and dual handles, while the creamer echoes the faceted form with a softly flared rim. The butter dish completes the set with clean rectangular lines and side handles.

This set embodies mid-century Italian ceramic craftsmanship — bold color, confident form, and glossy, high-impact glaze. It would make a wonderful statement on open shelving, a bar cart, or a breakfast table vignette.

Marked Italy.

Circa 1960s–1970s.
