This duo is a substantial gift for any lover of Irish tradition: hand painted spongeware cup and saucer in a ready-to-go beautiful box.  The story on the back says it all, and the front allows buyers to see and feel the real thing!  Strong enough to keep its shape during travel or gift wrap extravaganzas, this boxed set is guaranteed to intrigue and amaze.  It also encloses a totally useful cup and saucer, which is made well enough to last a good long while. The Sheep Pattern features a charming rustic scene. The landscape scene is enhanced by its green leaf border and is immediately eye-catching. The entire design is trimmed with vivid blue shapes to add contrast to the design. Measurements: Small Mug: 7cm h (2.7" h)                      0.175l v (0.37pt v) Tiny Plate: 13cm dia (5.1" dia)
