(PORN 011) This espresso cup from a German Meissen kiln takes us into another new generation of coffee tasting. Judging from the inscription on the bottom of this porcelain cup, it is the usual inscription in the Meissen kiln from 1815 to 1923. At the bottom of their unique underglaze blue crossed double swords, there were two more prominent dots during this period, representing the hilt. In this more than one hundred years of time, we can still order a relatively short date for this customer cup. The shape of the cup is the neo-classical shape of the Meissen kiln at the end of the 18th century. The design of the cup can be seen from the influence of that era. Therefore, it is called the Berlin style. It is precisely because the Berlin, the capital of the Kingdom of Prussia at the time, led the German national neoclassical. path of. In 1814, Maison had a new director, introduced new techniques, and developed the underglaze green color. German artist Johann Samuel Arnold (1766~1828) designed the green grape vine pattern that is still used by Maison. , Is also the pattern of our guest porcelain cup. However, because this is an espresso coffee cup, we can know the production time of this porcelain cup based on the history of espresso coffee. Although in 1884, the Italian Angelo Moriondo (1851~1914) applied for a patent for "steam-operated equipment for making coffee beverages quickly," but it is still different from today's espresso machines. In 1901, Milanese Luigi Bezzera made a series of improvements to espresso machines. In 1905, Desiderio Pavoni bought Bezzera's patent and began mass production of this coffee machine, which started the era of espresso in Italy. In other countries, espresso was combined with milk, and different forms of coffee beverages such as cappuccino and latte appeared. Germany is deeply influenced by Italian culture, and espresso is gradually becoming popular. This espresso cup from Maison is the same as our four Nymphenburg espresso cups. It is a testament to the popularity of espresso in Germany in the early twentieth century. *If you have any detailed questions, please send an email to contact the designer *The merchandisers of this design hall are mainly Western antiques, old jewellery and home accessories, and old European original prints.
