History
this cup was given to my grandmother over 60 years ago and it was given to her by a very close friend from Padiham Lancashire England. As far as I know there are only 6 cups and saucers each one a different design, this one represents the English acorn and the oak leaf. All of the handles on the cups were of a different shape and hand set. The friend of my grandmothers had gone around to many antique dealers back in 1954 or earlier and the dealers at that time said the cup and saucer is probably as old as the 1771 that is on the bottom of the saucer and cup. NO other id on the items.
