Know before you buy
No, this set is not suitable for the dishwasher or microwave. Due to the delicate hand-painted finish, we recommend hand washing with a mild detergent to preserve the integrity of the design.
The cup stands at 3.75 inches tall, and the accompanying saucer has a diameter of 6.25 inches.
Because each piece is individually hand-painted in Limoges, France, you may notice subtle variations in the brushwork. This artisanal process ensures that every set possesses a unique character that mass-produced ceramics lack.
While the ceramic material is durable, the sophisticated banded design and hand-painted artistry make this set best suited for formal dining or elevated tea rituals rather than everyday high-traffic use.
No, this set does not feature double-walled insulation. It is designed with a traditional ceramic construction focused on aesthetic elegance and classic presentation.
