PORTMEIRION POMONA ROYAL GEORGE GRIMWOODS PEACH 3OZ DEMITASSE CUP AND SAUCER
Discontinued Pomona Small Cup And Saucer Set - Super Condition!
MEASUREMENTS I am happy to offer a small Pomona cup and saucer set featuring the Grimwoods Royal George Peach fruit. It holds about 3 oz for Denitasse or Expresso. This cup shape is unusual as most demitasse cups have a bulbous shape and this has slanted sides. This shape was discontinued years ago and both pieces are in mint condition!

The cup on this set has a green oval 2nds ID mark. I do not see any quality issues and think this cup was produced in a Special Decoration run or was a sample. All the demitasse cups I have seen all have the fruit repeated on front and back. This item has a Pomona Apple Blossom on the back.

Portmeirion Pomona Expresso Cup Set

The Grimwoods Royal George Peach motif is an original fruit on Pomona and is still in production today.

Size Cup - 2-3/4" high and 2-1/2" wide at the widest (without handle), and 1-3/8" across the bottom foot

Saucer - A touch over 5" across. This saucer is a little larger and a slightly different shape than the borderless saucers.

Liquid Capacity - About 3oz, maybe a little more to the brim
Transfer The fruit transfer is on the front and a Pomona Apple Blossom on the back. Both are perfect without flaw.
Ground Very white
Glaze No crazing and nice shiny glaze overall
Chips/Cracks None
Stains None, even the unglazed band on the bottom where it sits is very clean
Use Marks None
Other Comments A very unique Pomona romantic cup and saucer set in the Grimwood's Peach fruit!

As mentioned above, the bottom is marked with a green oval 2nds ID. Most likely, it was a one of a kind item made in small quantities and has an Apple Blossom on the back rather than a repeat of the fruit.
