Know before you buy

Yes, each purchase includes both the tea cup and the coordinating scalloped saucer, designed to complement the cup’s fluid silhouette.
While the set is crafted with an elegant aesthetic, it is made from durable fine bone china suitable for regular use. However, it requires careful handling due to the fine scalloped edges and gold accents.
