A cup within Oriente Italiano
The cup’s listed proportions
This cup is about 5.7 cm high and 9.4 cm in diameter, with a capacity of roughly 230 ml and a weight of about 107 g. These measurements describe the Indaco Antico Doccia tea cup, not the collection as a whole.1
Indigo, white and an imagined garden
The Indaco decoration sets blue motifs against a white ground. Ginori describes the design as an imagined garden and links its blue-and-white palette to Japanese table culture.1
A wider porcelain collection
Made for tea and infusions
The cup is intended for tea, herbal infusions and tisanes, with a matching saucer.1
Porcelain and practical use
Ginori describes the cup as pure porcelain, hand-decorated and Made in Italy. Its listing marks it microwave-safe, dishwasher-safe and suitable for food contact.1
The opening tells more than height alone
| Indaco object | Diameter | Height |
|---|---|---|
| Tea cup | 9.4 cm | 5.7 cm |
| Espresso cup | 7.1 cm | 5.6 cm |
| Tea saucer | 15 cm | 2.4 cm |
The tea and espresso cups are almost the same height, but their listed diameters differ. A photograph cropped around the decoration can therefore conceal the more useful size distinction. Match the object name as well as the Indaco colour, and keep the saucer as its own reference rather than assuming it is included whenever a cup is pictured with one.4
