Vintage Oscar Schaller & Co Demitasse Teacup and Saucer White and Gold Tea Cup circa 1935 Bavaria Bone China Bavarian Tea Party

Looking for a wonderful demitasse set to add to your collection? You may have found exactly what you are looking for in this lovely white and gold pairing by Oscar Schaller & Co!

A sweet little set made of fine bone china and expertly decorated by a talented artisan. Each piece is untinted - keeping just the bright white coloring and then overlaid with beautiful gold floral vines draping to the center. Neither piece was ever used, received as a gift it was placed into a curio cabinet and left until the owner's estate was disbursed.

Based on the hallmark the piece dates to approximately 1935. The cup measures approximately 1-5/8" high, 3" across the mouth and 1-1/2" across the base. The saucer measures about 4-3/8" in diameter and just over 1/2" high. There are no chips, cracks, scratches or repairs - it is in wonderful vintage condition!

NOTE: The company was founded in the year 1882 by the businessman Oscar Schaller and after exactly ten years he changed his mark into the symbol representing a stylized 'S & C' for Schaller & Co.. In 1917 the company was taken over by the Gebrüder Winterling O.H.G. in Röslau (Bavaria) and renamed to Oscar Schaller & Co. Nachfolger. The upward trend was so promising that they bought and converted the textile factory Kirchenlamitz (Upper Franconia, Bavaria) in 1920 and took over the company Porzellanfabrik Eduard Haberländer in Windischeschenbach (Upper Palatinate, Bavaria) in 1929. All these subsidiaries were kept under the name of Oscar Schaller & Co. Nachfolger. In 1938 the group also took over the Triptiser Porzellanfabrik A.G. (Triptis, Thuringia) that remained a standalone factory for the next years until its expropriation and partial nationalization in 1947 which was completed after the founding of East Germany in 1949.

Whether for the new collector or the connoisseur, this beautiful demitasse pairing will be a lovely addition to any vintage china collection!!
