This uniquely shaped teacup has a playful feel. The green tones are also tasteful. The shape of the bottom is also free-spirited and lovely. It's the perfect size and shape to fit comfortably in your hand. It would also be great for flowers. I received this from a pottery teacher. I don't use cups of this size, so if you'd like one, please consider purchasing it. It's unused, but it has been stored at home, so I hope you understand.
