TEA CUP WITH A HANDLE GOLD

Emblem of the city of Nancy in France, the chardon (French for “Thistle”) was the original inspiration behind a first service created in 1908. In 1913, the name was anglicized, becoming Thistle. Since then, it sparkles nobly on the greatest tables. Venitian-style stripes, bevel cuts and a decoration made from 24-carat gold or platinum adorn its parison. Thistle: more than 100 years-old and as sharp as ever.
