Description

This is just the most beautiful duck egg green vintage large enamel cup complete with lid. Made in the 1960s in Shanghai this would have been used for hot drinks with the handy lid keeping the tea hot. The colour is just so pretty & is very similar to Farrow & Ball's Teresa's Green. A band of navy on the rim of the cup contrasts well with the duck egg green. As it is such a good size it has a number of uses & as it is lovely & clean inside you could use it for its original purpose & would make a thoughtful gift for a keen gardener to take a hot cup of tea outside with them. The handy lid keeping any insects from flying into the tea! Great for the potting shed & a perfect gift for Father's Day. If you're looking to add a vintage vibe to your kitchen then it is fantastic for storing kitchen utensils by the hob. On a dresser its so pretty storing candles & flowers or alternatively you could use it in the bathroom to store toothbrushes or use it as a planter. It looks very sweet holding an orchid on the kitchen windowsill. Dimensions: Height: 16 cm (including lid) / 12.5 cm (without the lid) Diameter: 13 cm Width (including handle): 17 cm Condition: Lovely vintage condition. There are a couple of minor nicks to the rim of the cup & the lid has some chips to the enamel in three places.
