Canister Set, Mepoco Ware, Blue and White Lusterware Floral, Set of 6 (12 Pcs), Antique 1919, Germany

This Mepoco Ware canister set has kept its full complement of pieces — coffee, flour, rice, sugar, and tea canisters plus a coordinating salt box — a rare thing for a set this old to survive intact.

• Materials: Porcelain
• Origin: Germany
• Era: Antique, 1919–1935
• Quantity: Set of 6 (12 pieces including lids) — coffee, flour, rice, sugar, and tea canisters plus a coordinating salt box

• Condition: Very good condition for their age. All gold lettering is in perfect condition, with no issues on any of the lids. The flour canister has a very fine crack on one side; the sugar canister has a small crack on the rim; the tea canister has a larger crack visible inside and out, running from a rim chip nearly to the bottom. All other pieces are in really good condition, all acceptable for age and wear. Please review photos closely before purchasing, as all sales are final.

All six pieces share a lusterware finish with a blue and white floral design, a tiny green checkerboard border, and gilded lettering identifying each canister's contents. Marked on the bottom: Mepoco Ware, Made in Germany, 6144.

Ready to decorate a kitchen in style, this set fits beautifully into Country Farmhouse, Cottagecore, Victorian, or Grandmillennial decor — a coordinated storage set that elevates everyday pantry staples into something worth displaying.

Mepoco Ware appears to have operated as a distributor rather than a single manufacturer — porcelain marks researchers have linked the mark to several European makers, including the Porzellanfabrik Adolf Laufer (operating 1919–1936) and Germany's Steingutfabrik Annaburg. The brand sold coordinated kitchen sets like this one alongside tea and coffee services and even porcelain clocks, all stamped simply “Mepoco Ware, Made in Germany.”
