“Enjoying breakfasts with style”

I am so happy with this pair of hand painted coffee cups and matching small plates that can also serve as saucers. I love that the design is complete on the saucers and use them for my breakfast pastries. The workmanship is quite precise, a perfect match to bowls purchased a couple year ago. Also, the packaging was expertly done with care so that all arrived in excellent condition.
