Paramount EPNS "Du Barry" Complete 5 Piece Tea & Coffee Set, by K.G. Luke.
Coffee pot 27cm high
Tea pot 22 cm high
Hot water jug 27 cm high
Milk jug 16 cm high
Sugar pot 16 cm high
Triple plated and in good vintage condition with some internal staining/wear, some minor external silver rubbing and one small knick on the sugar pot.
The Bakerlite finials and Bakerlite hot-item handles are all in tact and are a highlight.
The hinges are good.
Very usable still for the original purpose and they display wonderfully for the collector.
Made in the 1930s by K.G. Luke in Queens Parade, Fitzroy in Victoria. A well known maker who later made the Melbourne Olympic medals.
It seems hard to buy a complete set as many appear as single items.
Really smart for tea party use or to show off!
