    An inch high and diameter. Seems to be moulded hard paste, I can see a faint seam under handle and on the other side. Would it be for a dolls house? Seen a pattern for 18th century Leeds that looks similar but I'm not sure if it's more modern and nothing much.
    Thanks image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg image.jpg

    Is this as big as a thimble or Jupiter?

    At an inch I think its more a part of a dolls tea set. In a 1/12 scale dollhouse ( wich most are) it just wouldnt be in proportion. I think its sweet and Id keep it. :)

    Thanks Kentworld. I thought it had something about it but it wasn't a shape I could find anywhere. Still it's tiny so not difficult to find a place for it and at 50p from CS worth a punt.

    Tried to get a decent close up and I agree looks massive!
