Bidding ended. Lot is unsold.
Note: Neo-Classical wares such as this were produced by a variety of European makers, most notably Paris but also in the UK, with Swansea producing a very similar model of porcelain coffee can. Whilst this example is unmarked, our feeling is that KPM is more likely due to the enamelled Germanic/Continental view.
