Tournai Custard Cup

This is a great pot de creme (lidded chocolate cup ) or pot au jus or lidded custard cup made by Tournai in the late 18th century. It is made of soft paste porcelain and was hand painted with a very nice and quite typical blue design all around the tio of the main body and the lid with a blue line trim to the bottom of the piece and a bit of blue trim to the handle wich has their typical shape. The lid has a nice fruit finial with two leaves. The lid has a little hole in it for venting steam. This pot and lid are in super condition - the only issues being that the handle is a bit crooked but that is not a big deal and one of the finial leaves has a bit of damage to it as shown. It displays perfectly! Both pieces are marked underneath with some blue letters / numbers as shown. The cup and lid are about 3 inches tall and 2.5 inches in diameter with the handle sticking out about 0.75 inches. These pieces are becoming very hard to find these days! Please email me for more information or other pictures.

Price is $299
