Rörstrand | Rex Pair | Model DM | Hertha Bengtson

Gaze upon the tempting black lace tinged with the palest of mint green, demurely covering a pure white glaze. And then let your eyes travel downwards to linger on the handpainted saucer below...

1. Rex on red saucer: This is an uncommon and beautiful decor on Rörstrand's much sought after DM model. It is aptly named Rex - the king of cups - and doesn't come on the market very often. I've managed to get my hands one which can only be described as in perfect condition.

2. My second recently acquired rex, the grey variant is also uncommon. However although this cup is in good condition with no crazing or chips; the saucer shows visible wear and there's a tiny point of discolouration on the outside rim. It is not for sale outside this listing.
