Antique Spode Demitasse Cup & Saucer Set Blue & Gold 4669, Early 1800s
Early 19th Century Spode demitasse and saucer set is marked simply with the word Spode and the number 4669 on the base of the cup and saucer. The interior of the cup and the saucer are hand painted in a beautiful gold vine and blossom design with a background of a very dark blue. The exterior of the demitasse cup is decorated with a gold design, with the same vine and blossom theme. The top and bottom rim of the exterior of the cup have a gold painted band.
The rim of the cup and saucer are gently fluted. The demitasse is 4" wide at its widest points and 3" high. The saucer is 5.75" in diameter and 1" tall. This set is in very good condition for its age. There is a tiny chip visible under magnification on the rim of the demitasse.
There is a small chip along the edge of the saucer. There are two thin lines along the first indentation along the bottom of the demitasse that appear to be glaze cracks. We examined the lines under magnification and the glaze appears to go into the cracks, leading us to believe this was a result of the manufacturing process. There are no cracks on the interior of the cup. We are not experts, but we try to provide as much information as possible, including pictures from several angles.
