Tea & Coffee Sets
A Lomonosov tea or coffee set is built on a named shape — Tulip, Yulia, Natasha, Dome — and the shape sets the proportions of every piece in it, from the cup to the sugar bowl. The patterns run from Cobalt Net, the factory’s best-known decoration, to Golden Ribbon and Coral. Each set is painted by hand and assembled as a unit, so the pieces match in tone and in the weight of the gilding — something that is hard to achieve when collecting items one at a time.

Cobalt is one of the few pigments that survives the 1400 °C glaze firing, which is why the blue sits under the glaze and never wears off.
