Wedgwood China of England produced this fascinating pattern with a brown dragon encased in dark blue. This teacup and saucer is dated 1956. The Wedgwood pattern name is Florentine Blue. The navy paint is heavy and one can feel the luxurious design. The Chinese dragon represents nobility, wisdom and prosperity. Eastern dragons are intricately connected to the seasons and the elements and are often associated with one of the four cardinal directions. This is in the autumn equinox. Its spirit brings wealth and health.
The price also includes free shipping within the US and free gift wrap and free shipping insurance. Worldwide shipping is $20.
The saucer is 5.75" in diameter. The cup is 2.25" tall. It is 2.5" tall including the handle and 4" from rim to rim.

Do not wash any of the china in the dishwasher. It may cause crazing if boiling water is poured directly into the cup. These are not made for microwave use either.
