This teacup and saucer was made expressly for Gilman Collamore (1834—1888). Gilman established his business in 1861.
Gilman Collamore & Co. was in premises at 731 Broadway in 1861. Then it occupied premises in Union Square before taking two stories of showrooms in The Wilbraham, a fashionable block of bachelor flats at Fifth Avenue and 30th Street, that opened in 1890.
This very light weight, translucent teacup and saucer was manufactured by Brown Westhead Moore, an English Stoke upon Trent company founded in 1856.
Measurements: The saucer is 5.5" in diameter. The cup is 1.75" high and 3.75" in diameter at the rim.
This elegant teacup and saucer is in excellent condition. There are no cracks, chips or crazing. There are a couple of faint, tiny pencil point dots inside the cup which are original to manufacture. We do not sell damaged wares. You may buy with confidence.

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.
We do not know the exact materials used in the china. We are selling them as decorative items.
We offer free gift wrapping on most items. It is mentioned in the listing.
