This cup has some visible crazing. Crazing is the cracking of the surface glaze common in old dinnerware and is often reproduced to create the "antique" look for modern dishes. It is characterized by a spider web pattern of cracks penetrating the glaze. This cup is an authentic vintage piece. The crazing does not cause leaks and the cup is dishwasher safe. This type of Brown & White Toile Transferware was developed & popularized in England, during the 1750's, at the beginning of the Industrial Revolution. This cup can be decoratively displayed, or used as part of a table setting. There are no chips, cracks or repairs. This piece were purchased at an antique flea market in the city of Bremen, in Germany, over 20 years ago, and hand carried to the USA. Toile (pronounced "twall") originated in France. It is a classic decorating pattern that is over 200 years old. In 1779, the introduction of copper plates made the characteristic precise and detailed drawings possible. Toile dishes typically consist of only two colors and usually portray pastoral scenes, from daily life, or historical landmarks, such as castles. Transferware is the term assigned to ceramics that are decorated with motifs that are applied by engravings transferred from a copper engraving, to a special tissue, and then onto a pottery base.
