This incredibly lovely (and rare!) demitasse set comes from Tressemanes & Vogt, one of the many factories doing business in the Limoges region of France at the end of the 19th century.<p>

The Venice pattern is a light green with a pink wild rose design. The porcelain is festooned with bouquets of these roses, which are dotted with gold. There is a garland around the white porcelain center. The rim of the tray has white flounces edged with gold as do all other items in this set.<p>

The set includes six (6) pieces: The coffee pot, two cups, two saucers, and a curvaceous serving tray. The curvy tray is 13-1/2 to 14 inches long and 6 1/2 to 7 1/2 inches wide, depending on where and how you measure. The coffeepot is 7 inches high with a 3 1/2-inch bottom. It is 5 inches from handle to spout. The cups are each 2 1/2 inches across the top, 3 inches wide with the handle, and 2 inches wide without. The saucers are 4 1/2 inches in diameter. All are in perfect condition!<p>

The bottom mark, which appears on all pieces, is a double mark: the red T and V "Bell" with "France" below the clapper, and a black rectangle with T and V in it and "France" below the outside of the rectangle. Above the rectangle is the wording "VENICE/Mfrd Dec. 23rd 1895: the precise date of manufacture.<p>

This is a special opportunity to own fine antique T and V porcelain!<p>
