Because while most cups get a nice border and call it a day, this one got the full treatment: pink and orange blossoms climbing all the way around the inside rim, grey leaves cascading down, and a little swirl of gold at the edge for good measure. Show-off, in the best possible way.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Chikaramachi teacup and saucer is decorated with a bold hand-painted floral design — pink and burnt-orange flowers with yellow centres, against a sweep of grey foliage and twisting black vines on a white ground. The scalloped saucer rim and the curved, wide-mouthed cup form are very much of their era: confident, cheerful, and not remotely shy. The gold rim runs along the scalloped edge of both cup and saucer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePart of the same Chikaramachi Art Deco floral series as the cake set and serving platters — great for mixing and matching or building a full table setting. Marked on the base with the distinctive red Chikaramachi crown-and-wreath stamp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSold individually.
