Rare Tulipano Coffee Cup

This is a rare coffee can shaped cup made by Doccia in the 18th century. It is hand painted with a really nice floral design I have seen being called Ischia and Tulipano but the second one makes more sense. A very typical design for Doccia and one of the ones I like the most :) I have not come across this shape cup with this design before but I do have the tea cup versions. One could make a nice trio for example. The cup handle has their typical shape to it with some puce trim on it. The piece is in perfect condition with a tight crack across the bottom terminal of the handle as shown. Doesn't take away from the piece! The cup is marked with a puce S or something along those lines which is quite typical for Doccia pieces of this period. The cup is 2.625 inches tall and 2.5 inches in diameter. Please email me for more information or other pictures.

Price is $399
