Bold 1970s tea set in glazed ceramic, designed in the spirit of Ettore Sottsass with strong geometric volumes, squared handles, and a striking red-and-black color-block palette. The graphic contrast and architectural silhouettes capture the era’s radical, design-forward attitude, making the set equally compelling for daily use or as a display-worthy statement on open shelving, a sideboard, or a bar cart.
The set comprises 9 pieces: six cups with their matching saucers, plus a teapot, creamer, and sugar bowl. The glossy glaze enhances the crisp lines and saturated colors, while the cohesive, sculptural language across all elements creates a highly collectible ensemble for lovers of Italian modernism, postmodern-inspired tableware, and 1970s interiors.
As with all vintage ceramics, age-related wear may be present, including light surface marks, small glaze imperfections, or minor signs of use consistent with the set’s vintage character.
