This is a small, easy-to-use cup and saucer (1 set) from the British pottery brand Hornsea. How about it as a companion for a wonderful time alone? ^ ^ This is a rare and valuable series called "Charisma," which was only made for two years in the 1970s, and I purchased it from an antique shop in London. I think the Scandinavian design will appeal to Japanese tastes. Hornsea withdrew in 2000, so only vintage items are available now. There is a black mark on the handle, but it is not a chip. (See photos 9 and 10) There is a black spot on the rim of the cup that feels like a snag. (See photo 7) As this is an old item, some people may be concerned about other scratches or minor imperfections. Please check the photos as well, and feel free to ask any questions you may have. There are no cracks that would interfere with use. I think it will be fine for general use, so I would be happy to do business with someone who understands that. Size (amateur inspection): Plate diameter: approx. 13cm Cup height: approx. 7.5cm Cup diameter: approx. 6cm Thank you for your consideration.
