Enjoy espresso with a touch of Brittany with the Breton Stripes Blue Espresso Box Set, handcrafted and hand-painted in Quimper, Brittany, France. Beautifully presented in a metallic gift box, the set includes two espresso cups with matching saucers, making it a wonderful gift for coffee lovers and admirers of authentic French pottery.
The Breton Stripes Blue pattern features classic blue striping inspired by the maritime traditions of Brittany. Fresh and timeless, the blue-and-white design brings a distinctly French coastal character to coffee time and pairs beautifully with other pieces of Quimper faience.
The tradition of Quimper pottery dates to 1690, when faience production began in the historic Locmaria district of Quimper, Brittany. For more than three centuries, Quimper has become celebrated for its distinctive hand-painted pottery and the generations of skilled artisans who have preserved this remarkable French ceramic tradition.
Each piece of Quimper pottery is individually handcrafted and hand-painted in Quimper, giving it the distinctive character for which authentic Quimper faience is known. Subtle variations in color and brushwork are part of the artisan process and ensure that each piece is truly unique.
