A Penny Farthing For Your Thoughts

 This little cup and saucer tells a story 




From the turn of the 20th century -

The theme of this little cup and saucer(The tea cup holds 2/3 of a measured cup- when filled to the brim) is Victorian childhood and the riding of a Penny farthing bicycle, Or highwheeler bicycle.

Done in blue and white, the saucer shows a boy riding off on his high wheeler while his sisters look on. On the cup the boy has fallen off of his bike and looks sadly on as another boy rides away.

This is not a toy teacup but may have been a teacup for a young person or child.

It’s in excellent vintage condition.
