Sophie Conran by Portmeirion Espresso Cups and Saucers, Set of 2, Biscuit Feature

  • Set of 2 Sophie Conran by Portmeirion espresso cups and saucers
  • Crafted of fine, durable porcelain in choice of white or color
  • Modern, organic styling and ridges give handcrafted look
  • Safe for use in the oven, microwave, freezer, and dishwasher
  • Complements full range of dinnerware and bakeware
These simple, beautiful, and functional espresso cups and saucers are part of an entire tableware and bakeware collection designed by Sophie Conran, an English food writer with her own gourmet pie company. Conran infuses her namesake tableware with a flowing organic nature and tactile expression, as evidenced by the ridges and dipped rims that recall handcrafted pottery. Made of porcelain expressly for Portmeirion, the collection comes in glossy white with select pieces available in cool blue celadon and a creamy biscuit color.

The two charming cups in this set each hold three ounces of espresso and display a curved handle that makes a lovely flourish. The matching saucers are deeper than many, which allows them to contain spills or hold a tea biscuit, and each features a well for nestling the cup. The cups and saucers show the wavy, slightly uneven sides characteristic of this rustic yet modern collection. Lightweight yet incredibly durable and chip-resistant, the porcelain espresso set complements the entire Sophie Conran line of dinnerware, and is safe for use in the oven, microwave, freezer, and dishwasher. --Ann Bieri The Sophie Conran Collection was designed exclusively for Portmeirion. This collection is as durable and functional as it is beautiful. Sophie is part of the world-famous Conran lifestyle and culinary dynasty. The simplistic and organic nature of this collection makes it perfect for every style and taste. Each beautifully delicate item meets the hard-wearing needs of today's family and culinary experts. Available in White, Bisque and Celadon, the look can be as simple or diverse as your tastes demand.
