    the cup

    i wish i had more information about this cup. i cannot find a brand or maker's mark. however, it is hand-signed in gold on the base «e fountain». there is a very generous amount of gold leaf here, with a band aroudn the rim that is intentionally rough-edged. the handle is beautifully finished in a satin gold. if you know anything about the artist, please do share. my best guess is that it is a limoges artist, but i have absolutely nothing to back that up except the style of the script of the signature being french style. i really love the handle on this cup. depicts a mated pair of mallard ducks. i think it might be hand painted (that is partly based on the fact that it is signed.)
    dimensions (you can get a sense of scale in the second-to-last image)
    height is 3 5/8" tall. the rim diameter is 2 5/8". from the outer most part of the handle to the opposite rim is 4".
    maker's and/or other marks
    i am unable to locate any.

    the fine print
    the images serve as the majority of the listing description, so take a look at them closely.
    shipping costs have really increased—this is calculated into the buy-it-now price.
    i am not able to sell individual items from items i have listed as a group. i just don't have the stamina to create new listings for those. i apologize for that. i haven't initially individually listed items because i don't have enough listing slots to so.
    trying to downsize some, though extremely melancholically.
    shipping time: i otherwise work more than full time and my health isn't great, so kindly excuse the longer handling time. if i am able to ship sooner, i absolutely will do that
    . i appreciate you taking the time to view my listing.
