Coffee Set Rosalia 925 Silver in Case — Turkish Coffee Pot with Mocha Spoon and Roses

A coffee set made of 925 sterling silver, highly polished — consisting of a classic Turka (Turkish mocha pot) with a traditional black turned wooden handle and a matching mocha spoon with a twig-shaped handle. Both pieces feature sculpted rose designs as 3D attachments: intricately modeled rose blossoms on the side of the Turka's body, and a lavish bouquet of roses crowning the spoon's handle. We call this design “Rosalia” — Italian for “Rosalie,” as a direct reference to the rose motif. Presented in a velvet-lined premium case — ready for gifting.

Rosalia — The Rose as a Classic Tableware Motif

Since antiquity, the rose has been the universal symbol of elegance, grace, and reverence. In Western European tableware traditions, roses have appeared on opulent sets, caskets, and service pieces since the 18th century — as a sign of devotion, festivity, and quiet appreciation. In Russian goldsmithing, the rose is particularly associated with classic aristocratic table culture.

In this set, the rose is present in three ways: sculpted rose designs on the side of the Turka's body with intricately modeled petals, stamens, and foliage. On the mocha spoon, a lush bouquet of roses, consisting of several stacked blossoms, crowns the handle, which itself is modeled like a delicate rose vine. The motif runs consistently through the set, making it a compositional unity.

Unlike the animal motifs of the ArgentA souvenir line (tiger, rabbit, wild boar in the corkscrews), this set belongs to the Classic Collection — the classic aristocratic line for tableware.

Turka — The Classic Mocha Pot in 925 Sterling Silver

The Turka (also known as Cezve or Turkish coffee pot) is the traditional tool for Turkish, Greek, and Armenian mocha. Characteristic features include its bulbous shape, wide neck, and long wooden handle, which is used to heat the pot over an open flame.

✦ Bulbous mocha pot made of 925 sterling silver, highly polished
✦ Black turned wooden handle (traditionally ebony or dark hardwood) — heat-insulated for lifting over a flame
✦ Mirror-polished interior — easy cleaning, no flavor absorption
✦ Sculpted rose designs on the side of the body — two attachments as a premium detail

The Turka is suitable for classic mocha preparation: water, finely ground mocha coffee, and sugar are heated over a small flame until foam rises — then served in mocha cups. Mocha as a ritual, not just a function.

Mocha Spoon — Twig Handle with Rose Bouquet

The mocha spoon is thematically coordinated with the Turka: the handle is modeled as a delicate rose vine — with hinted tendril lines and small leaf accents — and is crowned at the top with a luxurious sculpted rose bouquet made of several stacked blossoms. The bowl of the spoon is small and teardrop-shaped, suitable for mocha consumption (approx. 5 ml volume for sugar portions or skimming foam).

The piece is solidly cast from 925 sterling silver — the handle and rose crown are one piece, not glued or soldered. The fine modeling of the individual petals is discernible when held between the fingers.

925 Sterling Silver, Highly Polished — The Material Truth

Both pieces (Turka + spoon) are made of 925 sterling silver, meaning 92.5% pure silver, solid throughout. The surface is highly polished — the rose sculptures are made from the same material and have a high-gloss finish. No gilding, no black inlay, no patination — pure sterling silver in its classic appearance.

What you need to know: pure silver tarnishes over time with everyday use — a chemical reaction with sulfur compounds in the air. On highly polished pieces, this becomes visible after months as a slight yellow to gray tint. The mirror shine can be restored in a few minutes with a soft silver polishing cloth. Particularly important for the Turka: clean the inside immediately after each coffee use — otherwise, coffee acids will attack the silver. Wipe the outside normally.

Packaging — Ready to Gift

The set comes in a fabric-covered premium case with a deep navy blue velvet lining. Both pieces (Turka + spoon) are nestled in a shared, recessed form — creating the appearance of a jewelry casket when opened. Ready to gift, without additional packaging logistics.

Note from the manufacturer: The case or box may vary in details depending on the shipping status — fabric and lining are handmade.

For Whom, For What Occasion

The Rosalia coffee set is the romantic variation of the ArgentA coffee set range — the rose motif carries a clear connotation of love and appreciation. It is suitable for occasions where tableware with emotional significance is to be given as a gift:

✦ Leather Anniversary (3rd Wedding Anniversary) or Fruit/Flower Anniversary (4th Wedding Anniversary) — as a perfectly symbolic gift that will carry wedding day memories for decades
✦ Silver Anniversary (25th Wedding Anniversary) or Golden Anniversary (50th) — a top-tier tableware gift
✦ Milestone Birthday for a partner or mother — a lasting premium gift with rose symbolism
✦ Engagement gift — as a gesture towards future shared tableware
✦ Collectors of tableware and mocha accessories — as an addition to their collection
✦ Family heirloom gift — a piece to pass on to the next generation

If you are looking for other premium gifts in a similar vein: Turka selection with other models or gift sets made of 925 silver for a broader assortment.

Engraving and Personalization

Both pieces of the set can be engraved upon request — this is particularly sensible for a wedding or anniversary gift:

✦ Bottom of the Turka — discreet initials of the couple, wedding date, short dedication
✦ Back of the spoon handle — initials or monogram
✦ Same engraving on both pieces — as a unifying gesture (e.g., “A & B · 06/14/2026”)
✦ Two different engravings — Turka with couple's initials, spoon with date

We will discuss the font, depth, and position before execution. For high-value gifts, we recommend a sketch for approval in advance.

Frequently Asked Questions about the Rosalia Coffee Set

What is a Turka?
The Turka (also Cezve, Briki, or Turkish coffee pot) is the traditional vessel for Turkish mocha — a bulbous pot with a wide neck and a long handle, made for preparation over an open flame. Its shape has remained virtually unchanged since the Ottoman Empire. In Russia, Turkey, Greece, Armenia, and the Levant, it is the standard tool for classic mocha.

How is mocha prepared in a Turka?
Water, finely ground mocha coffee (much finer than espresso), and sugar (to taste) are mixed in the Turka — approximately 50 ml of water, 1-2 teaspoons of coffee, 0-2 teaspoons of sugar per mocha cup. Heat over a small flame until foam rises — DO NOT boil, but remove from heat briefly when the foam reaches the rim of the pot. Serve in mocha cups, using the mocha spoon to distribute the foam.

Is the Turka suitable for induction?
No — 925 sterling silver does not work on induction (the material is not ferromagnetic). The Turka is designed for an open flame (gas, classic charcoal) or for use with an induction adapter plate. It can be used on electric ceramic cooktops.

What kind of wood is the handle made of?
The wooden handle is turned from dark, dense hardwood — typically ebony or similarly dense tropical hardwoods, as traditionally used for Turka handles. The wood is heat-insulating and moisture-resistant. With normal use, such a handle lasts for decades.

What does the rose as a motif signify?
The rose is the classic symbol of love, elegance, grace, and quiet appreciation. In the tradition of tableware, it represents aristocratic festive table culture, dedication to an occasion, and timeless beauty. On a mocha maker, this translates into a tranquil, romantic moment of enjoyment — the set is particularly suitable for wedding and couple-related occasions.

How do I care for the set after use?
Immediately rinse the inside of the Turka with lukewarm water after mocha preparation — otherwise, coffee acids will attack the silver. Polish the outside dry with a soft cloth; do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse it in the sink. The wooden handle should not be soaked in water — wiping it with a damp cloth is sufficient. Store in the provided case, ideally with anti-tarnish strips.

How does Rosalia differ from the Libellula set?
Both come from the ArgentA Classic Collection, both include a Turka + mocha spoon, and both are highly polished 925 sterling silver:
✦ Libellula: Dragonfly sculptures (3 pieces) — a lighter, nature-inspired motif, representing change and summer
✦ Rosalia: Rose sculptures with a lush bouquet on the spoon — a classic-romantic motif, representing love and elegance
Which set is suitable depends on the occasion and the recipient. Rosalia is the variant for romantic and wedding-related occasions.

How is the set delivered?
In a velvet-lined premium case, securely padded for shipping. Ready to be given as a gift, without additional gift wrap. Upon request, we can include a SilberVerse card with a dedication.
