About the Item

We recommend that you read the entire description because with it we try to provide detailed technical and historical information to ensure the authenticity of our items. We anticipate that we have 12 pieces available that can be purchased in the desired quantity. Original and distinctive white porcelain cups with saucers; the size is that for the classic Italian "espresso" and to maintain the right heat of the coffee they have a pretty lid with a black knob, the edge of the saucers is also finished with an elegant black rim; the eccentric and unusual decoration in the center represents a female eye with eyebrows. To make the entire object, the fine white porcelain was first fired; at this point, using the "transferware" method, the eye design and black decorations were applied, the transparent glaze was then spread over the entire product, and the final firing was carried out. The term "transferware" refers to porcelain glazed and decorated with a specific treatment produced in Staffordshire England; artisans used copper plates on which they engraved the design, then the copper plate was inked and the design transferred to a special fabric and then placed on the porcelain (in plates, tureens, vases, etc.), then the objects were glazed and fired; it is a method that is used, with some modifications, even in modern times. Our cups were produced in 2010 in a workshop of young artists in the province of Florence who called themselves "Italian Artisans"; they wanted to specialize in the production of fine white porcelain objects decorated by hand with transferware with simple but elegant designs (animals, ancient statues, abstract objects, etc.) created entirely by the artisans themselves, finished with great care and impeccable precision, with precise and calibrated kiln firings to ensure durability. Our mugs are classic specimens with a modern twist, expressing great decorative elegance, they are perfect accessories, sought-after gifts, and sophisticated, seductive, and exclusive pieces. The cups are in excellent condition, they were part of an exhibition, so never used. Global measurements with saucer diameter cm.12, height cm.11; single cup size diameter cm.6, height cm.6. For all our shipments we use special packaging materials (wooden crates, styrofoam, etc.) for maximum protection and safety of the items.
