Three China Cups and Three Matching Saucers of Rebbe Rayatz - With Certificate of Authenticity Signed by His Daughter Rebbetzin Chana Gurary
Three china cups, with matching saucers, used by Rebbe Yosef Yitzchak Schneerson – Rebbe Rayatz of Lubavitch, in the US in the 1940s.
Gold-rimmed cups and saucers, with a rose pattern. Marked: "Pope-Gosser China made in U.S.A. Sterling 42".
Letter of authenticity enclosed (handwritten note, in English), signed in Hebrew by Rebbetzin Chana Gurary (1899-1991), eldest daughter of Rebbe Rayatz: "I hereby gift… 3 cups and saucers that my father used in the 1940's". The letter is dated 17th September, 1989 (see previous lot of three china plates matching these cups and saucers).
A matching compote bowl (made by Pope-Gosser) was owned by Rebbetzin Chaya Mushka Schneerson, wife of the Lubavitcher rebbe. Rebbetzin Chaya Mushka gave the bowl as a wedding gift to the son of her close friend Schvester Mania, Ms. Sheina Matla (Mania) Lotz-Rosin (Schvester Mania was the attending nurse in the home of the Rayatz while still in Europe and part of the entourage that accompanied him on his escape to the US in 1940. She lived in 770 Eastern Parkway, caring for Rebbetzin Shterna Sarah, the wife of the Rashab and stayed on for many years as the attending nurse of the familiy of the Lubavitcher rebbe, even after the death of the Rayatz in 1950. See: Kestenbaum & Company, Auction 75, Lot 280).
Cups: 5.5X10 cm Saucers: 15 cm. Good condition.
