These sets have impeccable designs of glamourous shimmering golden butterflies with bold geometric patterns from the colours hot pink, scarlet red and mustard yellow that brings the piece together. The floral compositions have vibrant flowing petals outlined in a thick dazzling gold as they make their way across the delicate bone porcelain surface. The set was created by A. Nosova who had based on a painting of the wonderful artist Alexey Viktorovich Vorobyevsky. After working with the artist for decades, she thoroughly studied his hand-painting style.
