Coffee service with cups and saucers in Puisaye stoneware by Jean-Pierre Prud'homme

This beautiful 12-piece coffee service (6 cups, 6 saucers) is part of a large utility service that I will offer here in several batches. If you would like to order the whole lot, do not hesitate to contact me, a pie mold (ref wfbxvcts), a gratin dish (ref teqdb8ud), an ice bucket (ref be95sadd) and a pie dish (ref wshd8da8). These cups and saucers are made of pyrite stoneware, with a very pretty enamel mixing soft and comforting tones: beige, caramel and chocolate, material and colors typical of the 70s. These pieces are not signed, jean-pierre prud'homme did not sign not all of these pieces and even less the small pieces that were part of a larger service. For the service that I offer in batches, only the large pieces are signed: dish, tray etc. Jean-pierre prud'homme founded with his wife an artisanal pottery workshop in 1971 in monnaie, working with nièvre clay (puisaye sandstone). This workshop still exists today (au grès du vent workshop), it is run by his son benoit prud'homme who took over in the 1990s-2000s and also creates very beautiful ceramics. This service dates from the 70s and it is in good condition: no cracks, no chips, just tiny chips on the edge of one of the cups. The cups measure 7.5 cm in diameter, 10 cm in width including the handle for a height of 5.5 cm. The saucers measure 13 cm in diameter.
