Immerse yourself in the warm atmosphere of Parisian brasseries with this magnificent set of vintage cups and saucers.
Featuring the iconic Empire green so characteristic of the zinc bar counters and iconic terraces of the capital, this set perfectly captures the essence of the French art of living. The cup's robust and generous shape is ideally proportioned to retain all the warmth and aroma of a strong espresso or a long coffee.
Each piece is enhanced with a delicate gold rim, adding a touch of luminous elegance that contrasts beautifully with the depth of its green enamel.
While their design immediately evokes the legendary creations of Apilco, these cups possess their own unique identity and rarity. They proudly bear their original gold stamp on the base: Helvetia Déposé Express.
Specializing in the creation of porcelain and ceramics for the hotel industry in the mid-20th century, the Helvetia brand established itself at the time as an absolute benchmark for durability and technical expertise. Each cup and saucer weighs 360 g!
A perfect opportunity to enjoy a cup of coffee at home while recreating the Parisian bistro atmosphere of Place du Tertre in Montmartre.
Height: 5 cm
Saucer: 12.5 cm
Weight: 0.360 kg (1 cup + 1 saucer)
