An elegant 18-piece tea service by Fürstenberg, Germany, produced in the West Germany period and decorated with delicate hand-painted blue floral bouquets on fine white porcelain.
This refined set features beautifully moulded relief decoration, thin porcelain walls, graceful rococo-inspired forms, and hand-applied gilt accents. The larger serving pieces are additionally embellished with a gold monogram, giving the service a distinctly custom and aristocratic presentation.
The set includes a large round serving plate, two oval handled serving platters, a teapot, sugar bowl, creamer, and six teacups with six matching saucers. The floral decoration is light, elegant, and classical, making the service especially suitable for collectors of German porcelain, refined tea ware, or romantic table settings.
The blue underglaze Fürstenberg mark with “Seit 1747” and “West Germany” confirms the manufactory and places the set in the postwar West German production period. Founded in 1747, Fürstenberg remains one of Germany’s historic porcelain manufactories.
This is a luxurious and highly decorative ensemble that displays beautifully both as a tea service and as cabinet porcelain.

(The photographs form an integral part of the description.)
A well-placed antique does more than decorate a room - it gives it authorship. Against a contemporary interior, older objects introduce texture, balance and a sense of permanence that cannot be replicated by newly made pieces alone.
This is the principle behind the LÜRON selection. We look for works that carry historical character with ease, and that feel as convincing in a Paris apartment as they do in a more modern architectural setting.
