A tiny tea service with the presence of a jewel. Against a luminous turquoise-blue ground, delicate flowering branches unfold across each piece, traced in fine metal wire and highlighted with warm brass-toned rims and handles. The result is richly detailed despite the miniature scale, with every cup, curve and floral motif contributing to a remarkably decorative little ensemble.

The set comprises a small teapot with fitted lid and retaining chain, four matching cups and a circular serving tray. Each piece is decorated with flowering branches in burgundy, white, pink and green against the turquoise ground, with fine metal partitions forming the characteristic cloisonné pattern.
