Some pieces just feel a little special when you pick them up, and this small demitasse cup and saucer from Richard Ginori is one of those. Richard Ginori has been producing fine porcelain in Italy since the 1700s, and their pieces are known for their bright enamel decorations and beautifully balanced shapes. This little espresso cup carries the classic Richard Ginori crown mark on the base and features delicate floral decorations framed with a colorful border. The cup also carries a small crown with the word “Italia,” a charming detail that reminds you this piece came from one of the most famous porcelain houses in Europe. This set would look lovely in a coffee collection, on a small display shelf, or used just as intended for a good espresso.
Demitasse cups were made for strong coffee like espresso or Turkish coffee. They’re smaller than standard teacups but perfect for enjoying a rich cup of coffee the way it was meant to be served.
Condition: Excellent
There are no chips, cracks, or crazing. The colors are still bright, and the porcelain has a beautiful clean glaze.
