The decoration showcases beautifully rendered pheasants amidst stylized foliage, a striking and collectible variation within the traditional Imari palette. The cup is delicately potted with an elegant footed base and refined handle, paired with its original matching saucer. Maker: Royal Crown Derby. Date: 1911 (marked J11). Pattern: Imari style with pheasant/bird motif. Material: Fine bone china. Finish: Hand-decorated with gold gilt accents. Cup height: approx. Saucer diameter: approx. This set is a smaller-sized teacup, often referred to as demitasse size, though it retains the proportions of a traditional English teacup rather than a true espresso cup. No chips or cracks observed. Light, age-appropriate wear to gilt. A refined addition for collectors of Royal Crown Derby, Imari porcelain, or antique English tea wares.
