Vtg Souleiado pour Solafrance Tea Set - "La Fleur d'Arles" Pattern - NOS 5pc Set

Here is a collector's dream find, a beautiful and wonderful 5-piece Solafrance La Fleur d'Arles standard size tea set bearing marks that date it to the earlier, highly collectible Souleiado Solafrance production period of the 1980s/early 90s. Prized by collectors for its fine porcelain quality and Made in France heritage, this set is in excellent condition, appearing never used.  This set features the iconic and historic La Fleur d'Arles motif, a traditional 17th-century Provencal pattern known for its vibrant colors and intricate floral details.  Measurements: Teapot body: approximately 5.5 tall and wide (not including lid, spout or handle), standard teapot capacity for serving 2-3 people. Flat-bottom teacups: 2.5 tall x 3-3/8 in diameter at the rim. This wider, shallow shape is classic for tea, big enough for coffee. The wider, shallow design allows the beverage to cool more evenly. Saucers: 6.  Condition: The porcelain is bright, and the colors are crisp. No chips, cracks, or wear noted. No utensil marks, water spots, or fading to the vibrant yellow or red pigments.  Spout and handle are smoothly and firmly attached without blemish at the points where they join the body of the pot. The slight curve of the spout is purposeful and a sign of the fine quality and hand-finished origin.
