    I found these cups in an Estate Sale in my neighbor hood about a year ago... Brentwood - Los Angeles. They were in a fantastic mid century home that had never been touched.

    Problem is.... I have never seen anything like them. I have six... one is damaged but has been repaired.. along time ago! No label but maybe
    ROSENTHAL NETTER INC. or BITOSSI? Don't know.

    I love them.
    I have been looking for about a year with nothing in site that are like these.
    Has anyone seen anything like these?
    Thanks so much!
    Andra - still looking

      Hi

      These fish cups are defiintely very strange and not something you see every day. The gilding is not a usual decoration but nice pieces too boot. They are not Bittossi or any other factory, just generic tourist wares

      Fratelli Fanciulacci is probably the maker.
