Know before you buy
This set includes four teacups and four matching saucers, totaling eight pieces.
No, these pieces are not dishwasher or microwave safe. Due to the delicate hand-painted porcelain, we recommend hand washing to preserve the integrity of the architectural motifs.
The collection features Fornasetti’s signature architectural motifs, characterized by a geometric, Art Deco-inspired aesthetic that turns functional tableware into a decorative art piece.
While they are crafted for residential use and can certainly elevate your daily tea ritual, their hand-decorated finish makes them best suited for formal dining or special occasions where they can be handled with care.
