#17 LIMOGES DEMITASSE

Limoges Demitasse

Today I wanted to share the only Limoges demitasse cup and saucer in my entire collection.  I personally have never seen to many of these little darlings but I must say I love this little beauty.  The artist did a beautiful job painting this tiny cup and saucer.  I love that it is pink of course and has beautiful little roses.   It is light and delicate and oh so beautiful.

A demitasse (French for half cup) or demi for short is used to serve espresso.



Both pieces are marked

As promised I am continuing to post pictures of my Limoges Collection. This will take some time to get everything on my blog. Be sure to come back to see more lovely pieces of Limoges and other vintage porcelains.
