About the Item

This rare Old Paris "pôts-de-crème" / "Anneau d'Or" set circa 1860 contains 12 dainty pink and white porcelain cups / pots and a tiered stand which are accented with gold decoration. This set would have used to serve a dessert of "Creme Catalane" or cold custard. Pot de crème is a loose French dessert custard dating to the 17th century. The name means "pot of custard" or "pot of cream", which also refers to the porcelain cups in which the dessert is served. It is usually looser than other custards, flans, or crème caramel. Pot de crème is made with eggs, egg yolks, cream, milk, and a flavor, often vanilla or chocolate. The milk and cream are heated and flavored, then mixed into the whisked eggs and egg yolks. The mixture is strained and poured into cups, which are then baked in a water bath at low heat; sometimes prepared without milk and frozen. This service would have belonged in a grand house and even then would be used only on special occasions, each little pot is 3.62” L x 2.37” W x 4.44” H and the stand is : 11.62” L x 12.25” H In modern times it can also be used as an expresso or chocolate service. There is a small nibble on the base of one of the pots. Very hard to spot. There is what looks like a crack in the footed plate (photographed) but in fact it is just a fault in the glaze which would have happened during the firing process. Unsigned which is typical of pieces this age.
