Tea Time! Beautiful Pink Yellow Green Floral Chintz on Gold Porcelain Mug & Lid

Description: Here is a really beautiful porcelain mug with lid, perfect for steeping tea while the lid keeps the heat in. The lid is gracefully curved and edged in greek key in colors of red, yellow, green and blue with a round gold finial on top. This greek key trim is on the upper edge of the mug also. But what makes this set so beautiful is the many color flower chintz design! And I see a red pomegranate in there too! The part that is not flower petals or leaves in the background is shiny gold. The handle is pretty amazing too, painted gold with single pink and yellow roses decorating it. I do not know where the cup was made, there is what appears to be a south Asian symbol in red on the underside. The pomegranate in the design may mean it is Chinese. The cup and lid are excellent shape, with no chips, cracks or crazing. There is some rub wear or fading to the gold, especially on the edges of the cup and lid, and on the handle, and a bit of fading on the floral design. But there are so many colorful flowers fading is not very noticeable. The gold finial on the cup shines up beautifully with no tarnish or discoloration, so it looks like a fairly high karat gold. It is about 3 & 3/4 inches tall without the lid on, 5 & 1/2 inches tall with the lid on, 3 & 1/2 inches in diameter, and holds 1 & 1/2 cups easily, almost 1 & 3/4 cup to the tippy top. The cup weighs 12.5 ounces, and the lid weighs 3.5 ounces. Please zoom in on the pictures and see the 360 degree video for a closer look. I pack with lots of bubble wrap for safe shipping and ship out quickly, sometimes same day, always by next business day, and sometime on Saturday if I can get to the post office before it closes at noon. Any questions, please ask and thanks for looking!
