RARE "Finest Chocolate Pot Mold" MASTERPIECE ~ Breathtaking Antique Hand Painted Chocolate Coffee Tea Pot ~ Gorgeous Roses ~ Outstanding Gold Work ~ Exceptional Victorian Period Heirloom, Circa 1890

"RARE VINTAGE MOLD MASTERPIECE" ~ A true show-stopper for the Connoisseur Collector of Antique Coffee or Chocolate Pots ~ This is Truly an Exceptional Victorian Period Heirloom ~ Breathtaking Antique hand painted Austrian Chocolate Pot, circa 1890's, entirely and expertly handpainted by a most talented turn-of-the-last-century artist.

This is a very rarely seen Crème De La Crème Art-Porcelain mold...a beautifully ornate beauty for the connoisseur collector of antique hand painted porcelain art, or admirers of especially beautiful Victorian Pieces. This glorious Chocolate Pot may have also been used for an elegant presentation for an afternoon Coco or Tea Service. It is a completely original one-of-a-kind beauty.

This particular piece with its long elephant trunk shaped spout is perhaps the "Finest Mold Ever Made" and the Most Exquisite Antique Chocolate Pots that I have had the pleasure to own. This "C. Tielsch & Company" porcelain mold, which was later copied by two French Limoges Companies, is the "Crème de la Crème" for outstanding delicacy and intricate quality and detail. The pictures just don't do justice of how VERY EXCEPTIONAL this beauty is. This particular example dates back to the 1890's and has been hand painted with an Absolute Stunning Bouquet of PINK and BURGUNDY Roses ~ nestled in wonderful multi-colored foliage. The Artist has truly captured each petal and fine leaf with the utmost delicacy creating an utterly breathtaking still life palette. This technique of china hand painted in the naturalistic floral art style was so very popular around the Turn-of-the-Century. The Background Shades are Stunning ~ and the Gorgeous Robin Blue shade on this beauty is Breathtaking ~ intricately painted on the Exquisite Ornate Handle, Finial, and Elephant Trunk Pouring Spout. The Heavy Gold and Gold Paste Work is Beyond Gorgeous ~ and the raised-relief porcelain Gold Beading around the center of this beauty portrays a wonderful jeweled necklace.......The Artistry is Simply Stunning ~ You will Definitely and Absolutely be Overwhelmed by this piece ~ it is Exceptional beyond words.............. A truly Remarkable and Outstanding piece to add to your collection.

Overall Condition of this Beauty is Excellent Condition, Sterling quality, with the china painting very well preserved. I do note for accuracy purposes what appears to be very slight touch-up to the green paint just at the base. There are pin-size dots of paint loss on the burgundy roses (on the backside), almost not even worth mentioning. In no way does this distract or take away from this Magnificent piece. Measuring 9 5/8" tall ~ The back-stamp underneath bears the underglaze mark "CT" in green below a spread eagle, hallmark of "C. Tielsch & Co., Altwasser, Silesia, Germany, circa 1895".

I will have this Professionally Packaged and shipped for you with the UPS Pack and Ship Services. Please email me if you have any questions or would like additional photos.
