Description
This petite vintage Nippon demitasse cup is as charming as it is delicate. Standing just three inches tall, it features a graceful flared rim, scalloped edges, and a hand-applied floral design accented with gilt detail. Made in Japan during the early 20th century, it reflects the era when porcelain artistry was as much about beauty as utility.
More than a vessel, this cup is a conversation starter — the kind of piece that belongs beside a poetry book or in a quiet reading nook. Perfect for a small serving of coffee or tea, or simply admired as part of a vintage collection, it carries the sensibility of another time when the rituals of sipping were savored.
