Ovington Gold Teacup, Austrian Tea Cup, Antique Teacups Vintage, Hand Painted Teacup, Ovington Bros, Ovington Brothers, Gold Teacup
Simply stunning. The gold is painted upon a soft, warm creamy background.
This resplendent teacup and saucer was imported from Austria by Ovington Brothers. It was sold in their store in New York. It is worth noting that the store sold the best china available. At one time in 1870, they had a table setting which was priced at $3000. Obviously they sold to the richest of customers. They closed in 1883 because of fire.
The history of the store is interesting. To read more, go to:

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.
