Vtg H & Co Heinrich & Co Selb Bavaria Cavalier Pattern Set of 4 Cream Soup Bowls

Description

vintage "cavalier" pattern set of 4 double handled cream / bouillon cups / bowls from h & co. (heinrich & company). made in selb, bavaria. i am dating this discontinued  pattern to 1930-1939 based on the manufacturer's backstamp. the "cavalier" pattern is characterized by a gold rope pattern around the edge with garlands of pink roses and a filigree fan with scrolls. there is gold gilt on the edges. these vintage beauties measure 5" in diameter (to include the handles) and are 2" tall. when this pattern was made, dinner was an occasion. vintage china settings had specific pieces for specific uses. these double handled cups were used for bouillon broth or cream soups. i've seen them called cups and / or bowls. these gorgeous pieces look great all by itself or paired with other pieces for a beautiful grandmillinneal table setting. replacement pieces to these vintage sets are becoming harder and harder to find. there are no chips, cracks or crazing that i can see or feel.
i did notice some wear in the gilt on one of the handles. please scope out my last pic and judge for yourself.
