Just a couple of shots to show our growing coffee cups collection – before I break any of them. My mother collects coffee cups. The most she picks up are two of one set. So if you ever come to visit or invited for family breakfast, please don’t be surprised that none of our coffee cups are matching.
These are ceramics by one of local designers from Surabaya where my sister lives. They are designed locally and mostly catered for hotels and restaurants. The cups and saucers are sold retail in their showroom. I tried to purchase some plates for props, they said that they were for restaurant / hotel clientele and minimum of one dozen pieces applied for any orders. I tried to make my sister lie that they were for samples for bigger purchase. Don’t know if they buy that or not. She is not a good liar and I am almost certain that she didn’t pull it off – unlike yours truly. *clears throat*
They only cost less than USD 0.80 each set. I came across a shop that tried to sell those to me for USD 5.50 a set just this week!

The cups are all so pretty! And I am a coffee lover too! But I will not use these cups for drinking my coffee cos gradually, the cups will be stained! ;O
