Traditional Parisian coffee cups are made of thick porcelain to survive the rigours of life in a 19th century Parisian café. Traditionally, once the coffee was drunk, the cup would be turned over and a shot of eau de vie put into the dimple on the base.
 
I love the pink and gold detailing at the rim and the bottom and the pink design on the handles.
 
These are useable if you wish, if pre-warmed, the porcelain keeps the coffee war     m effectively. They also display beautifully.
 
They stand 3.5" tall and 3.25" across the top.
