Vintage French Coffee Service for 6

$295.00

Found at a countryside market outside of Paris, this charming Vintage French Coffee Service for six captured our hearts at first glance. The set includes a tall coffeepot with lid, a covered sugar bowl and six cups and saucers. Lovingly made by the skilled Sarreguemines potters, this cheerful set calls to mind the pastoral countryside and wildflower fields found in the pottery's own backyard of the Loire Valley.

Spritzdekor decorated with a bouquet of gathered blooms, each piece is bursting with the charms of beloved French Country style. The German word spritzdekor, refers to a spray ("spritz") design on ceramics. This method of decoration was typically produced in Germany, Czechoslovakia, Belgium and France during the 1920s and 30's and captured the brief window of optimism between the two World Wars. In pleasing shades of earthy red and green, the leafy floral pattern on this set went by the name "Eric". 

With a warm and pretty aesthetic all its own, this rare vintage set dating from the 1930s shares its oh-so-French allure and handsome nature even still.

Learn More About French Country Style

French Country style evokes a charming and rustic ambiance that blends elegance with comfort, reminiscent of the countryside homes found primarily in Provence or the Loire Valley. This beloved aesthetic emphasizes natural materials and a palette inspired by the French landscape using soft, muted colors to create a soothing atmosphere. 

In French Country style, dinnerware plays a significant role in enhancing the overall aesthetic of the dining experience. Traditional French Country dinnerware often features rustic yet elegant designs that reflect the charm of provincial France. Plates, bowls, and serving dishes are typically crafted from earthenware or ceramic, showcasing hand-painted patterns that may include intricate floral motifs, pastoral scenes, or geometric designs in soft, earthy tones.

One of the hallmark elements of French Country dinnerware is its ability to bring a sense of warmth and authenticity to the dining table. Pieces often have a handmade or artisanal feel, with irregular edges or glazing that adds to their rustic appeal. Table settings are complemented by accessories such as linen napkins, woven placemats, and antique flatware, creating a cohesive look that is both relaxed and refined.

The use of French Country dinnerware extends beyond mere functionality; it serves as a means of celebrating the artistry and heritage of French craftsmanship. Whether used for everyday meals or special occasions, French Country dinnerware embodies a timeless elegance that transforms dining into a delightful sensory experience, evoking the rustic charm and natural beauty of the French countryside.

Learn More About Sarreguemines

Sarreguemines is the name of a small village near the German border in the Lorraine region of northeast France. It was in that village on the Saar River, that a family-owned pottery business was begun in 1790 that would eventually develop a reputation around the world for beautifully crafted, colorful ceramics.

This reputation, of course reached Paris and Napoleon I became one of Sarreguemines customers. In fact, most of the original decorative tiles used in the construction of the Paris metro stations were produced in the factories of Sarreguemines. In 1876 after the Franco Prussian War, a new plant was opened in the town of Digoin in the Loire Valley region of France. 

The potters of Sarreguemines brought the small city to the top of the earthenware industry, and from the 19th century Sarreguemines provided the whole world with a vast collection of earthenware, vases, decorative flower pots, wall frescos, chimneys, and so on.

The faience factories of Sarreguemines no longer exist, but the heritage of their quality craftsmanship and artistry lives on in beautiful antique pieces such as this wonderful coffee service.
