Antique Austrian Demitasse Cups And Saucers Set by Imperial Crown China Austria between 1883 - 1914
Demitasse set: 4 cups + 4 saucers
Stunning four (4) sets of Austrian flat demitasse cups and saucers. Each set is beautifully decorated and gilded.
Demitasse (/ˈdɛmɨtæs/) = small cup used to serve Turkish coffee or espresso. A demitasse has typically about 60–90 ml (2–3 fl oz) capacity — half the size of a full coffee cup (not to be confused with a tasse à café which is about 120 ml (4 fl oz)).
Germanic makers using the name "Crown Imperial" or similar are actually paying homage to world renowned original Austrian maker Royal Vienna (the one true Imperial company of Europe), one of the original hard-paste European innovators back in the 18th Century.
