This little beauty is a fairly recent purchased to accompany my
Guildford and District collection. This first photograph shows the front of the cup complete with the coat of arms for my home town. Guildford is in Surrey England.
The china is delicate and has beautiful little flowers on a pale green back ground.
The bottom show that this piece was produced somewhere within the British Empire – I would date this circa 1910.

What a novel little cup! I just stopped by to say thank you for posting a review on Amazon for my Book Blogger's Cookbook! Each review is a gem and helps get the word out. I will definitely be in touch with you for the 2012 edition.
Cheers,
