Jump start the morning with a double shot of espresso, or relax at the end of the day with a cup of decaf served in this 3-1/4-ounce espresso/after dinner cup from Villeroy & Boch’s Arden Lane tableware collection. Made in Germany, the cup is crafted in bone china. The cup attracts attention with the porcelain construction’s characteristic translucency and pure whiteness, while boasting remarkable strength to last for several generations. Below the discrete copper-colored enamel applied to the rim, a slim band in taupe circles around the cup’s exterior. Petite golden dots punctuate the band and feature techniques of trompe l’oeil to create an illusion of three-dimensionality. Underneath this ornate band, another round of gold accents dangles from scattered chains of smaller semi-translucent dots. Safe for use in the microwave, the cup also is dishwasher-safe, although the user should take care while loading. Avoid abrasive cleaners and scrubbers when washing the piece by hand. For storage, do not stack the cup as this causes undue stress to its loop handle. Hang the cup or store turned upside down. For mixing and matching, assorted complementary Arden Lane pieces are available. Villeroy & Boch carries a pattern availability pledge to notify users 12 months in advance of their pattern’s discontinuation. Upon shipping, the espresso cup measures 11-2/5 by 6-1/2 by 3-1/3 inches and weighs 1 pound.
