This cup and saucer set is stunning!<p>

The cup measures 2 1/4 inches high with a 3 5/8 diameter top and a 1 1/2-inch base. The saucer is 5 1/2 inches in diameter and is self-footed (the sides slope down to the foot) with a 1 7/8-inch base.<p>

There is minimal gold wear on the cup and saucer--some is expected for its age. Beyond a tiny fleabite on one edge of the saucer, the set is in excellent condition!<p>
