What a magnificent pair of Cups & Saucers
Extremely thin glass, tinted at the edges,
with beautifully enamelled designs
Just the 2 of them, unmarked but exquisitely made
They've been sitting on my framing bench for a year or so,
so delicate that I'm afraid to have them around.
Any idea who might have made them?
Thanks,
Tony.
