Doccia White Cup & Saucer #3

This is another cup and saucer made by Doccia in the late 18th century. I just bought an entire collection of this style design just in case you were wondering! They are quite rare! This is what most people refer to as Capodimonte style with the mythological figures in relief. I don't believe Capodimonte ever actually made this style but Doccia did and made it famous for sure! The cup has lots of figural scenes on it with some trees, lots of people and two oxen. The saucer is decorated with scroll work and garlands. All this is done in relief and is very detailed. The set is in great condition with some of their typical manufacturing flaws of this period including small cracks that are mostly under the glaze (two on the saucer decoration are not but they do not go through!!), minor black spots and inclusions. The handle is supposed to simulate coral and was used during the same time the thin branch type handle was used. The cup is marked with the crown over N mark in underglaze blue and the saucer is not marked at all which is nothing unusual! The cup stands 3 inches tall and 2.75 inches in diameter. The saucer is 0.75 inches tall and 5.625 inches in diameter. Please email me for more information or other pictures.
