Delicate, tiny, chrysanthemum-like flowers are stamped with gold paint on a simple, continuous pattern of curling vines. It's an elegant yet rhythmic and wonderful design. The cobalt net and the gold trim are very similar in color and shape to the Firebird series, so they look great together. It is also said to harmonize well with Royal Copenhagen's bowl-shaped cups due to the similar colors and blue tones. ★ As expected from the tea-loving country, the spout of the pottery is well-designed for pouring, with 9 strainer holes, and it is not easy to cool down, making it very practical. ★ Lomonosov (Imperial) Porcelain Imperial Porcelain Lomonosov Established by order of Empress Elizabeth of the Russian dynasty and started as a royal purveyor, this long-established, top-class brand has been in operation since 1744. Used at official state banquets. In the past, it was sold irregularly at high-end department stores such as Nihonbashi Mitsukoshi and Shinjuku Isetan, and was featured in catalogs and displayed in large stores by LUPICIA, and was also sold for many years at TWG Tea shops. Some items are still available at Mariage Frères. ★ Lomonosov is quite roughly made compared to other brand cups. Please understand that there may be minor paint errors, color adhesion of the glaze during firing on the foot rim, and minor scratches. The same is true even if you buy it at a high-end store in Ginza or at a department store event. Although it is much cheaper than high-end stores, we purchase first-class items directly from the kiln and conduct our own inspections, so I believe that the quality is not particularly inferior to that of high-end stores, and you can purchase with confidence. ★ Due to the traditional "upside-down firing" method, the rim of the cup has a unique matte texture, similar to some Royal Copenhagen cups, with a "smooth" feel.
