A complete glazed ceramic coffee service designed by the ceramist blanche letalle for the saint-clément factory in france in the 1950s.
this french modernist piece embodies the designer's characteristic formal vocabulary: repetitive lines, understated yet resolutely sculptural volumes, and ring handles with a strong graphic design, all imbued with a late art deco influence.
the horizontally striated, raised, ringed decoration lends the set a strong architectural character. Its greatest asset lies in its deep emerald green glaze, with intense and vibrant nuances, which highlights the relief of the decoration and gives it a striking visual presence.
the service is signed "b. Letalle – sc france" and bears the model number "4033".
the set includes: a teapot, a sugar bowl, a creamer, 12 cups, and 12 saucers. Please note: one of the cups is not from the original set, as it lacks decoration and has a different handle. However, it features a very similar glaze and color that blend harmoniously with the rest of the set (see photo).
this piece is ideal for lovers of mid-20th-century ceramic design, enthusiasts of green hues, and collectors who appreciate pieces signed by renowned designers.
very good overall condition (vintage). The set shows typical signs of wear consistent with its age. Please note: one cup has a chip (see detail photo).
