This Neptune Seashell design is a Belleek classic that was brought back into production in 2001 with the Belleek in Retrospect 2001 marking. The delicate soft pink scooped shell teacup measures 3½ inches in diameter. The feet are two tiny conch shells trimmed with gold while the handle is a sculptured piece of coral. The matching saucer is 5½ inches in diameter with a ribbed pattern. Both the rim of the teacup and saucer are trimmed with gold.
This beautiful teacup was featured on Roti n Rice where it was used to serve lavender tea. Please check out the post by clicking on the link or picture below.
Oh! That is heart-achingly beautiful!
So glad to have this one in my possession.
My goodness, the detail on this one! I love the tiny conch shell feet!!! If I owned this, I would be terrified of taking it out of my china cupboard as I have 3 rambunctious boys tearing in and out of the kitchen, so often *gasp*
This one is a real beauty! I rarely use it because it is so delicate. The conch shell feet are just adorable.
beautiful teacup and what a fun blog Biren
Thanks Rebecca! Glad to see you here.
Such a beautiful teacup and saucer. I will have to start shopping for teacups instead of mugs
Where ever did you find this tea cup … it is beyond delicate and beautiful … popped in to see if it was for sale … I am sure I cannot afford it anyway … just curious … but I do love it …
I actually bought this more than a decade ago on one of the home shopping network. They only had a limited quantity on sale and it went fast. I didn’t think I was going to get it as they announced that it was sold out while I was still on the phone.
