A Spot Of Tea

T-win Demitasse Cup by Karl Baxter

A bet­ter and bolder teacup set. The T-Win Demi­tasse Cup looks strangely alien to me for some rea­son yet the only things dif­fer­ent about it are very sub­tle. The ringlet han­dles are oddly placed. I’m not sure I like it because hav­ing a han­dle so high up means the rest of my hand touches the cup which if filled with hot tea won’t be a plea­sur­able expe­ri­ence. On the other hand, I love how the cen­ter of the saucer rises up into the cup to pre­vent it from slipping.
