ANTIQUE RUSSIAN KORNILOV PORCELAIN CUP & SAUCER

Hi Sue ~ I just love all these antique porcelains from Russia; happy that you are enjoying them. :))))

Isn't this exquisite Joyce, very elegant. Thank you...Sue

Hi quilt ~ Glad you enjoyed it. :)))

Great puzzle however I don't think I would drink my demi-tasse out of this one. Maybe they gave it to their enemies but a touch of bella donna on the tip of the handle. Gee did I really say that? Just kidding. I do like the pale rose color with the gold. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Janine & yellow ~ Glad you both enjoyed today's puzzle. Yes, it was used for the ''royalty'' of Russia, not the peoples of Russia. You'd have to be careful when taking a little sip. :)))))

My goodness, I love the colors (especially the dusty rose) in this cup, but it doesn't look user friendly, does it?!! Thanks for sharing it, cakes.

Left you a note on the Door Panel puzzle!

This would only be in a tsar's home...not meant for the general public, unless you had
mega bucks.....in Russia ?.....not so much. It is very unusual and very beautiful too.
Thanks Joyce for the display, Janine.

Hi cactus ~ All before their revolution, the time of the Tsars/Czars. Please browse through my past postings of Russian porcelain. :))))

I must be from the ice age. I never would have guessed the Russians had such beautiful and elegant dinner ware.

LOL Maybe!!!! :)))))))))))

Well, they must have made the servants drink for them!!!

Hi Judy ~ You think the handle is a killer???!!! Look at the lip of the cup. LOL
Really though, it was in use. :)))

An amazing cup and saucer! I hope it was meant to be purely decorative, because that handle looks like a killer!
