Description
An eight‑ounce green vintage scale‑pattern porcelain teacup and saucer set
- Pattern: The exterior is adorned with a raised, embossed scale or fish‑scale pattern, reminiscent of vintage Art Deco glassware. The colour is a deep, rich green with subtle variations in the glaze.
- Interior: Smooth and glazed in a complementary pale green or cream, providing a beautiful contrast.
- Capacity: 8 ounces — perfect for green tea, oolong, or a milky breakfast tea.
- Care: Hand wash recommended to protect the embossed surface; microwave not advised if the glaze contains metallic pigments.
This teacup and saucer set is a tactile delight. The raised scale pattern feels wonderful under the fingers, and the deep green glaze has an almost jewelled quality. The saucer continues the scale motif, creating a cohesive, highly decorative set. The cup is weighty, with a thick base that provides stability. It is a wonderful choice for a maximalist, vintage, or eclectic interior. The set is also an excellent gift for a tea lover with a taste for the unusual. The green colour is calming and pairs beautifully with wooden furniture and brass accessories. Due to the hand‑applied glaze, each set will have slight variations, adding to its artisan charm. The cup is a pleasure to drink from, and it elevates the simple act of tea‑making into a small ceremony.
