Bernardaud Soleil Levant Tea Cup - 5 oz

Bernardaud porcelain and tableware, since 1863 in Limoges, France.

Bernardaud is the art of porcelain Limoges since 1863, combining expertise and innovation, creativity and French tradition.In a constantly changing field, at the cutting edge of design,

Bernardaud is developing new technologies in its Limoges factory and constantly pushing the boundaries of the fire arts.

To draw its collections of tableware, lighting, candles and porcelain jewelry, the House uses the greatest designers and contemporary artists .

Craftsmen in Limoges work to ensure that each piece signed by Bernardaud dresses your everyday life with a simple and contemporary luxury, thus proving that two thousand years after its beginnings, porcelain remains an exception.

The Soleil Levant collection revisits the grandeur of early 19th century French porcelain styles, most notably the influence of renowned porcelain painter Pierre-Louis Dagoty, that combine elegance of form, vibrant colors and the sumptuousness of design and application of gold. The distinctive flowering papyrus motif that radiates along the border of the plate pays homage to the passionate interest in Egyptian-inspired architectural design, furniture and art that began in the 18th century and heightened after the Napoleonic campaigns in the 19th century.
