Plates / Bowls / Dessert Dishes... Others Glasses / Cups / Sake Vessels... Cups & Saucers The Coalport company produced extremely high-quality decorative porcelain, and works depicting landscapes were particularly synonymous with the brand, with small landscape paintings being its hallmark, depicting panoramas of mountains and watersides within small panels. Landscape demitasse cups are very popular among collectors. One of the reasons for this is that they capture the expansive sunlight, lush greenery, and the refreshing openness of clear water and air on a small piece of porcelain, and are works that should be a source of comfort for those who spent time looking at them while enduring the cold and harsh, cloudy winters of England, which is considered to be one of the reasons for their enduring support. (Excerpt from "European Antique Cup Handbook" by Mr. Yasushi Wada, p. 43) This cup is Adelaide shape. Circa 1840 Cup diameter: approx. 10.5 cm Height: approx. 5.5 cm Saucer diameter: 15 cm Although there is some wear on the gold gilding, there are no chips or cracks. The panels are hand-painted with houses and a peaceful lake, and are beautifully decorated with Rococo-style gold ornamentation on a cobalt blue and yellow-red background. I would be happy if there is someone who loves antique cups and likes this one. #Coalport #AntiqueCup
