Each
of these bone china cups and saucers are made from an alabaster
porcelain formula that was first implemented by the Lomonosov
factory in 1744. This type of fine porcelain, called bone china,
is so thin that it is translucent, but so strong it can be used
daily. All these cups and saucers are amazingly
"light as a feather". This particular cup and saucer
was decorated with a floral wreath pattern and produced before
1991. It was entirely hand painted and the pattern is so
intricate that you can't
believe someone would have the patience, much less the steady
hand. There are no chips, no cracks, no repairs, no
stains, and the set has never been used. The saucer
measures 4.75 inches in diameter and the cup measures 3 inches
tall. Marked clearly with
" Made in USSR" and the Lomonosov logo on the bottom of
the cup and saucer. Rated "excellent" condition.
