About MeLimoges porcelain cup, or tea bowl, standing on a deep foot. A squashed and pinched jagged ridge runs vertically down the lower half of the body, with the pinched ridge also acts as a thumb rest to grasp the bowl.
Glazed all over in a pale blue celadon crackle glaze with copper red splash highlighting the pinched ridge.
