The saucer also shows a similar story, with a mother putting her child to bed. The cobalt blue background is decorated with richly gilded motifs of grapes, which are traditional representations of wealth and happiness. Also featured in the smaller medallions on both the cup and saucer are detailed paintings of apples, pears, and berries, which represent the sweetness of life._Both the cup and saucer are in excellent condition. There is no damage or restoration. There is a very minor wear to the gold at the center of the saucer due to age. It is possible to use it and enjoy your cup of tea!
