Villeroy & Boch New Wave Caffe Cappucino Cup
Dinnerware Type: Plates, Saucers - Drinkware Type: Mugs, Coffee, Tea, Espresso
Coffee and contemporary art meld in Villeroy & Boch's New Wave Caffe collection. Consisting exclusively of cups and saucers for hot coffee and espresso drinks, the all-white collection proves that fine china is not just for traditionalists. The wide handle on this cappuccino cup swoops out of the rim, turns at an angle, and curves down to join the tapered base in a dramatic flourish. Both the cup and handle are crafted from one piece of vitrified china. Available separately is the saucer, a wavy rectangular plate that holds the cup nicely in a round well, leaving a shelf for one or two chocolate biscotti. Similar in shape to the other cups in the New Wave Caffe collection, the 8-1/2-ounce cappuccino cup is smaller than the café au lait cup and mug, and larger than the espresso cup. Each size fits a matching saucer/plate, resulting in a striking contemporary combo that is sure to jazz up afternoon or after-dinner coffee. Made in either Luxembourg or Germany, New Wave Caffe ware is safe for the microwave and dishwasher. --Ann Bieri
