Cup 8cl, diameter 6cm height 6cm, Plate diameter 12,5cm


The cup's base is designed with a small bump that tilts the cup when placed on a surface. But when placed on the saucer, the cup stands straight. Thus when you have finished your espresso and are waiting impatiently for your companion to arrive you can keep your hands occupied by gently spinning the cup.
