Coffee Services

From Victorian style coffee services to modern day exquisite porcelain coffee service collections, the coffee service has come a long way indeed. Coffee services include a set of vessels and implements for making and serving coffee. The items are all in  matching designs adding to the pleasure of sipping the beverage.

Elaborate 18th-century coffee service replicas are great for ritualistic coffee drinkers. They include coffee pots, a milk or cream jug, a pair of coffee caddies, a sugar bowl and pair of tongs, teaspoons along with a tray for all of them. Additionally matching  cups and saucers may also be part of the service.

All of these are normally placed on a tray, while an urn or kettle are kept on separate stand providing hot water. The earliest silver and pottery services to be designed as services date back to early 18th century. Coffee services are designed to accompany refined sensibilities for ceremonial coffee drinking rituals and therefore created artistically.

Coffee services may be made of sterling silver, bone china, china, pewter and stoneware. Being both decorative and functional, coffee services enhance the pleasure of drinking coffee for connoisseurs, adding a touch of refinement and class.
