Belleek Willets Gilded Cream, Gold & Floral Demitasse Antique Cup & Saucer

  
This beautiful cup and saucer are circular in shape with a slight scalloped edge. Saucer is approx 12cm from point to point, cup stands approx 3.5cm high with a diameter of approx 6.5 cm. Creamy white base colour with gold gilding and decoration. Also has floral decoration to inside and outside of cup and to saucer. Inside of cup also has gold base and gilding. Has Belleeks Willet snake mark on bottom which dates this around late 1880s to around 1909 but i would say this is most likely pre 1900s due to style, shape etc. Also has the stamp for the famous Mermod and Jaccard Jewelry co - St Louis on bottom of saucer which is where this item would have been made for. An amazing and highly collectable little cup and saucer that will look excellent on display. Both cup and saucer are in excellent condition for age. Tiny hairline crack on Saucer on bottom. I will consider sensible offers.
