Augarten Wien 🌹Vienna Rose Rare Porcelain Demi Teacup & Saucer Austria Numbered

The "Viennese Rose" with green border, framed by buds and scattered leaves, is one of the most popular motifs from the series "Viennese flowers" from 1924. A simple pattern, with delightful colours, elegant and refined. Even today the "Viennese Rose", the "Viennese flowers" series includes eleven different flower patterns. Augarten Vienna's first porcelain manufactory, the second in all Europe, was founded in 1718 by Claudius Innocentius du Paquier. In 1744,in the Rococo era, Empress Maria Theresa took the private company into imperial ownership.From that moment, the porcelain of the "Imperial State Manufactory Vienna" was marked with the historic Bebenberg coat of arms, the barred shield, which is still stamped on the porcelain in cobalt blue as the Augarten mark. The"white gold" from Vienna has been lovingly moulded and shaped, glazed and painted by hand ever since; therefore every single piece of finest Augarten is unique. This set is in perfect condition, from my great grandmother’s estate. It is a limited edition, number is 5089/350. It is a Demi size. The cup opening has a diameter of 2.35 inches or 6.1 cm, and is 4.25 cm tall. The saucer has a diameter of 4.5 inches or 11.4 cm, and is 2 cm tall. From a clean and smoke-free home.
