All the pieces are delicately decorated in crimson red, black and golden ochre, with hand-painted touches of gold which provide the set with richness and glamour.

The cups, the pots and the tureens have gold-painted winged-shaped handles, a detail which justifies the name ‘Medusa-Ikarus’ (Icarus).

All the pieces are in good t condition, with no signs of wear (even in the gold parts), hairlines, restorations or cracked edges. This item is more of a luxury item than an antique made in italy . Although the model is no longer manufactured, some of these pieces can still be found in specialized establishments. If you managed to find them all, to assemble this set, an interested person would have to be willing to pay for a dinner service with the same pieces about 18,000 euros or 20,000 US$.

It is a real statement, a true masterpiece of design and craftsmanship which combines Greek mythology and Italian luxury, ideal to add a touch of glamour to the most special moments.
