Floral Porcelain Teacups and Saucers, Set of 12

Six porcelain cups and six saucers, each with a different base colour and rose pattern. The cups hold 5 oz and measure about 3.5 x 2.4 in; the saucers are 5 in across.

Five ounces is the teacup measure rather than the mug measure, and it is deliberately small. Tea drunk from a 5 oz cup is drunk hot, which is the entire argument for a cup and saucer over a mug — a large cup guarantees the last third is cold.

Six different base colours rather than six matching cups is what makes this read as a collected set. Each guest gets a cup that is visibly theirs, which removes the usual confusion at a table where everyone is drinking the same thing.

They arrive packed in foam inside a shockproof box, which matters for porcelain this thin. Hand wash them — a dishwasher cycle will dull a painted pattern over time.

• 5 oz cups: the teacup measure, so tea is drunk hot
• Six base colours: each guest's cup is visibly theirs
• Cups and saucers: twelve pieces, six places
• Porcelain: thin enough for the pattern to read
• Shockproof packing: foam inside a box, for thin porcelain
• Hand wash: a dishwasher dulls painted patterns
