Beautiful vintage pair of LFZ Lomonosov porcelain teacups and matching saucers, made in the USSR.
This elegant set features a rich cobalt/navy blue and white porcelain body, decorated with intricate botanical leaf motifs and fine gold detailing. Both cups are paired with their original matching saucers, creating a sophisticated vintage tea or coffee set with a distinctly Soviet-era character.
The pieces are marked on the underside with the LFZ (ЛФЗ) maker's mark and “MADE IN USSR”, identifying them as products of the Lomonosov Porcelain Factory (LFZ), Leningrad. The LFZ mark and USSR export marking are consistent with documented Soviet-era Lomonosov porcelain.
The decoration combines deep cobalt blue panels with delicate leaf and foliage motifs, white porcelain areas and hand-applied-looking gold accents. The glossy porcelain and gilded details make this pair particularly attractive for collectors of Soviet porcelain, vintage tableware and decorative European ceramics.
