Vintage Made in Japan Lusterware Porcelain Footed Egg Cup Set of 2 Green Iridescent Luster Glaze Pedestal Cups Boiled Egg Holder 2.5" Tall

Welcome to MokiandMamaBear!

This vintage pair of footed egg cups was made in Japan and appears to be glazed porcelain or ceramic with a lusterware finish. Each cup has a tulip shaped bowl on a short pedestal base. The glaze is a soft green with a pearly, iridescent sheen that shifts to pink, blue and gold in the light, with a pale white interior.

Lusterware like this was made in Japan in the early to mid 1900s and was popular for affordable tableware and giftware. These little cups are made for serving soft boiled eggs at breakfast or brunch. They also work well as tiny vases for a single bloom, salt cellars, candy or nut cups, toothpick holders, or small holders for jewelry and trinkets. They suit cottage, farmhouse, vintage kitchen and mid century decor.

Measures approximately 1.75 inches in diameter and 2.5 inches tall.

In good used vintage condition with light wear from use.
