Van Nelle Tea Set – Tokyo 1964 Olympic Games – Cobalt Blue Ceramic

€148,50

Special vintage tea set crafted from deep cobalt blue ceramic, featuring embossed medallions “Tokyo 1964”.

The teapot prominently bears the name Van Nelle, the iconic Rotterdam coffee and tobacco company. The combination with “Tokyo 1964” suggests an international context, likely produced as a corporate gift or promotional item around the Tokyo Summer Olympics.

The set consists of a teapot (20 cm high), sugar bowl with lid, cream pitcher, pouring dish, and a matching small bowl-shaped element. The rattan handles and the intense monochrome glaze give the whole a distinct mid-century character.

The condition is very good, without visible damage. A characterful piece of Rotterdam's industrial history in powerful design.
