Such a find
A four piece Chinese Export silver tea and coffee set – so many get split over the years but this one still has the coffee pot, tea pot, sugar bowl and creamer
The polished round bodies of each piece have applied decoration of bamboo branches ( for resilience) and plum blossom (for new beginnings). Birds nestle amongst the branches..
The bamboo motif is used on the finials , handles and spouts
The cream and sugar retain their original gilding
The weight and quality of this set is exceptional.
