This exceptionally rare piece may well have been used during picnics and is of plain design. The Saucer is circular in form, with a raised edge and stands on a reeded ring foot. The Cup has a plain loop handle and also stands on a reeded ring foot. This piece is of the finest quality and may well have been a special commission. The Cup and Saucer must have been used for iced tea, as it would have been impossible to hold the tea cup if it had been filled with a hot liquid. Both pieces are well marked, are of a good weight and are in excellent condition.

Diameter of the saucer: 5 inches, 12.5cm.

Total Height: 2.5 inches, 6.25cm.

Total Weight: 10oz.
