Florentine Turquoise Teacup & Saucer (Leaf) Florentine is a historic pattern that has been used since the late 19th century. The border design is based on the "grotesque pattern" of the 16th century, with the motif of the Greek mythological "griffin," and the combination with the vibrant turquoise is very impressive. The items are also wide-ranging, and it is a formal pattern with a sense of weight among Wedgwood products. (For both coffee and tea) This item is in excellent condition, close to unused. Thank you for viewing.
