John Lewis & Partners Fine China Cup & Saucer, Set of 2, Black/White, 275ml
Product description
Product code: 68285102
The John Lewis & Partners in-house Design Studio has created a range of giftable fine china teaware celebrating Art Deco design. Sweeping stripes in on-trend monochrome and decadent gold tones take their cues from popular 1930s patterning, such as the graphic lines in designer Marion Dorn's rug at Eltham Palace in Greenwich, London.
Inspired by this era's style, this gift-boxed pair of cups and saucers feature abstract stripes. Made of fine china, they're both dishwasher and microwave safe for everyday use as well as special occasions.
Choose the perfect china
All our china is made from clay and kiln-fired for durability. Except for pieces with special trims, everything is dishwasher safe. Below are a few options to consider when choosing your perfect china.
| Earthenware | Strong and practical, perfect for everyday. Its cream colour and low firing temperatures allow for designed pieces. |
| Stoneware | Tougher than earthenware and chip resistant. Ideal for heavy use and can often go into the oven to temperatures of up to 250°C. |
| Terracotta | Uses a clay with a rich body colour giving the characteristic base colour, and has a low glaze firing allowing bright coloured glazes. Porous body allows for good thermal expansion and contraction properties making it an ideal body for cookware such as tagines and roasters. |
| Porcelain | Delicate yet strong. Carefully selected clays give whiteness and translucency. It can often go from oven to table. |
| Fine china | The synthetic bone ash used in fine china makes it a more affordable alternative to bone china whilst maintaining the benefits - strength, translucency and delicacy. |
| Bone china | Bone china is made from 40% bone ash. This makes strong yet thin and delicate pieces which are microwave, dishwasher* and oven safe making each piece ideal for everyday use, not just formal. *Unless product has metallic details - always check individual item for specific care instructions |
