A striking example of late 19th-century French artistry, this Keller & Guérin Lunéville oversized porcelain cup showcases the timeless beauty of the flow blue technique. The rich cobalt wash gently blurs the floral design, creating a romantic, watercolor-like effect characteristic of the Victorian era. Accented with delicate gold detailing, it reflects the craftsmanship that made Lunéville ceramics renowned throughout Europe.
This generously sized piece (approximately 7" wide x 5" tall x 4" deep) may have originally been used as a shaving mug, bouillon cup, or decorative serving piece. Its classic deep blue florals and elegant scalloped border make it a wonderful display item for collectors of antique French porcelain or flow blue ware.
