Cup and saucer
« on: March 16, 2013, 11:19:09 AM »
Final query re my recent job lot concerns a red glass cup and saucer with painted design. Is this old (i.e Victorian) or simply a cheap souvenir? It is rather charming in the flesh.
Regards
John

Venice first quarter 20th ct. i think. Not without charm but not high art either.
