Chocolate Cup In White And Gilt Porcelain – Europe, 19th Century

Elegant porcelain cup with saucer, decorated with gilt floral motifs and gold leaf borders. The lower part of the cup features a cobalt blue band enriched with golden scrollwork. The interior is fully gilded, while the exterior is adorned with large stylised flowers and gilt leaves. The twisted handle with volute termination recalls early 19th-century models.
Most likely a chocolate cup, slightly larger than common coffee cups:
Diameter with handle: 9 cm
Cup body diameter: 7.5 cm
Height: 8.5 cm
Saucer diameter: 14.5 cm

Good overall condition, with light wear to the gilding; the porcelain itself is perfectly intact, without factory marks or inscriptions.
