Bring a touch of tailored, English Country elegance to your curated spaces with this classic vintage ceramic pedestal cup. Featuring a beautifully tactile, embossed basket weave motif and a gently scalloped rim, this piece is elevated by a sturdy pedestal foot and finished in a crisp, glossy white glaze. Based on the structural design, the heavy glaze pooling, and the distinctive crossed "X" mold lines on the base, this vessel is estimated to date to the mid-20th century (circa 1950s–1970s) and is highly characteristic of classic Italian export pottery or midcentury American makers like McCoy. Please note that it bears minor, age-appropriate glaze flakes and flea bites along the top rim that simply add to its authentic, timeworn charm. Endlessly versatile, this piece functions beautifully alongside endless design styles —perfectly sized to serve as a small planter for a trailing vine, a sophisticated vanity cup, a desk storage vessel, a eclectic riser, or a refined catchall.

VINTAGE & ANTIQUE Vintage and antique items are pre-owned and aged goods. In most cases, we do not clean or polish any items that come into our shop. Once you remove an item's traces of age and patina it's not something you can reverse, so we leave those activities up to the buyer. We do not disassemble found art from their frames unless it is necessary to differentiate a print from an original piece of art. Vintage prints purchased from this shop could originate from any print media (e.g., magazines, books, photographs, art prints, etc.). We try our best to describe items accurately and disclose any and all flaws and imperfections. Please refer to pictures as a visual description. We want to make sure you are happy with your purchase so, please do not hesitate to ask any questions you may have prior to checkout.
SHIPPING As much as possible, we utilize recycled shipping boxes. The box you receive your item in may show signs of wear and pre-use.
