BidProwl Summary
Vintage 1926 Bohemia Donatello porcelain place setting, 6 pieces total: two cups with pearl luster interiors, two 6-inch saucers, two 9-inch dinner plates in pale aqua with gold trim and hand-inscribed provenance. Collectors pursue these mixed-mark vintage tableware lots for display, estate resale value, or heirloom serving; dealers may break partial sets for retail. Examine the chipped gold rim on one cup closely in photos, verify all gold banding condition since rubbing is noted throughout, and confirm no additional damage exists before committing since the lot ships as-is unsplit.
AI summary of the seller's listing; it may occasionally contain inaccuracies. Check the full description and inspect before bidding.
Condition note: One cup has rim chip, gold trim shows wear and losses
Description from HiBid
Two-piece-set group of aqua and gold porcelain tableware, including two cups, two saucers, and two matching dinner plates for a total of six pieces. All pieces are hand-inscribed "Rillie Hockaday 1926" on the underside, providing dated estate provenance.
Cups and saucers are marked Bohemia Donatello, Czecho-Slowakia in green on the underside. Dinner plates bear the green LHS Bavaria "Favorite" mark. While the backstamps differ, the pieces coordinate in their pale aqua ground, gold banding, and matching Rillie Hockaday 1926 inscription.
Cups feature an iridescent or pearl-lustre interior, pale aqua exterior, and gold-accented handles and rims. Saucers and plates have smooth aqua surfaces with gold bands around the rims. Dinner plates measure approximately 9 inches across, saucers approximately 6 inches across, and cups approximately 3 inches across the rim and 2 inches tall, based on the tape measurements shown.
Condition note: One cup has a visible chip or glaze loss along the gold rim, shown in the close-up photograph. Gold trim throughout the group shows rubbing, wear, and small losses consistent with age and use. Minor surface marks, utensil wear, manufacturing variations, or light discoloration may be present.
This lot includes exactly two cups, two saucers, and two dinner plates as photographed. All pieces sell together as one bidding unit and will not be split.
Please read the full auction terms, preview all images, and ask any condition questions prior to bidding, everything is sold as is.
