Small delicate Continental antique coffee cup, with floral and gilt decoration. This cup dates from the mid 1800's, a pedestal bowl demitasse. Much of the scrolled gilding show signs of wear on the base and outside rim. The floral sprays in the well are still vibrant. There is a tiny hairline off the rim running for only 2mm, as a result not easily seen.
This cup measures 7cm in diameter and 4.5cm tall. It is a lovely decorative item despite the flaws, priced accordingly.
