The pot and cups have two backstamps-an Elite Limoges backstamp dated 1870 and a Coiffe et Cie backstamp dated 1891, so this pot is about one hundred and thirty-five years old. It is shiny white with a pink floral design with greenery and gold trim. The pot has a gold handle with no visible wear and only light wear on the handle to the lid.

The chocolate pot measures 5.00 inches wide. It is almost 7.50 inches tall to the rim and 8 7/8 inches tall to the top of the handle.

Each cup is 2 3/16 inches wide at the rim and is 2 7/8 inches tall.

The set has no chips, cracks, crazing, or other damage. The cups have a split handle that shows some gold wear which is shown. The cups also have a pink flower design inside the cups which can be seen is hopefully in one of the pictures (there is more than one set of pictures). The inside of the pot is clean and stain free and honestly does not look like it’s ever been used. See less
