Vintage China Coffee Cans and Saucers, Set of 10, Coral Transferware with Scalloped Edges

This charming set of ten vintage China coffee cans and matching saucers is a wonderful addition for collectors or anyone who loves to bring elegance into their daily rituals. Each piece features a delicate coral transferware pattern, accented with subtle gold highlights and finished with scalloped edging that softens the form. The design captures a sense of refinement and ceremony, perfect for those who appreciate traditional craftsmanship.

Coffee cans are smaller and more delicate than modern mugs, designed specifically for sipping strong coffee in small servings. Measuring around 7 cm tall by 7 cm wide, with saucers of approximately 13.5 cm in diameter, these pieces were made for slow and considered coffee moments, rather than the casual grab-and-go. They invite you to pause, take time, and enjoy the ritual.

The coral-burnt orange colouring is warm and inviting, creating a striking contrast with the white porcelain background. The addition of gold accents elevates the set further, making it suitable not only for daily use but also for display in a cabinet, dresser or open shelving.

This set is offered in vintage condition with some light coffee staining to a few of the cups, which does not detract from their beauty but rather adds to their history and authenticity. Perfect for collectors of transferware or those wishing to style a vintage tea table with charm and character.

Styling wise, they work beautifully layered with crisp white table linens, alongside vintage silver cutlery or brass candlesticks for a classic look. They can also be mixed with other coral or burnt orange transferware to build a full matching service. For a more eclectic approach, style them with mismatched china to create a relaxed yet characterful tablescape.

Whether displayed as a full set or used in rotation, these coffee cans and saucers bring a touch of history and elegance to the table.
