About MeThis porcelain slim beaker is of slightly waisted form, flaring towards the rim.
It is covered all over in a soda vapour glaze resulting in a pearl white becoming pale turquoise blue around the circular stamps incised around the body. This decoration is a result of the copper carbonate applied into the impressed circular marks.
