DESCRIPTION: From Staffordshire England, by way of RH & SL Plant Ltd., this contemporary demitasse cup and saucer set is for the “Virgo” in your life.
On white bone china, in contemporary style, the demi set boasts a gold transfer of ”Virgo” surrounded by nature, as it is an earth sign. This astrological sign is said to be logical, practical, and a perfectionist. Known as a kind and loyal friend, the intellect of this individual leads to a problem-solver, and person with quick wit. If this describes your best “Virgo” friend, this demi cup and saucer set is the perfect little gift to pair with a favorite espresso flavor.
The cup is flat with round handle, accented with gilt. The matching upswept saucer is pristine white with a gold rim. A shiny glazed finish completes this design and complements the simplicity.
WHY I LIKE IT: Pristine white bone china accented with a light touch of gold…perfection!
