Wedgwood 'Amethyst' Teacup

This exquisite item is a Wedgwood 'Amethyst' pattern teacup, crafted from fine white bone china. The teacup features a classic, elegant silhouette with a delicate footed base and a gracefully curved handle. The primary coloration is a pristine white, serving as a canvas for the intricate decorative elements. A wide band of rich gold gilding adorns the rim, embellished with a repeating circular or scrolled motif, indicating a high level of craftsmanship. Below this, a narrow band of speckled magenta or deep pink provides a vibrant contrast. The main decorative band features a pattern of stylized, light lavender or amethyst-colored flowers, possibly hydrangeas or cherry blossoms, with delicate grey outlines and five petals, set against a white background. These floral patterns are interspersed with vertical gold stripes adorned with small, evenly spaced dots. The handle is also rimmed with gold, mirroring the elegance of the cup's upper edge. The footed base exhibits a subtle gold trim, completing the opulent design. The cup appears to be in excellent condition, showing no visible signs of chips, cracks, or significant wear to the gilding or floral pattern, suggesting it has been well-preserved. Its overall appearance exudes luxury and fine taste, characteristic of Wedgwood porcelain. It likely dates from the latter half of the 20th century or early 21st century, given the vibrancy of the colors and clarity of the design.
