The espresso cup set features metallic mirrored cups paired with patterned saucers that create an intriguing visual illusion. Each saucer displays distinct geometric patterns including swirls, concentric rings, radiating lines, and diamonds in dark blue. The mirrored surface reflects and refracts the saucer patterns, blurring the boundaries between pieces. This coordinated collection complements other items from the same series for a cohesive presentation.
A playful study in illusion, the 'Aunty' espresso cup by Polspotten pairs a metallic mirrored cup with a patterned saucer to ingeniously blur the distinction between pieces. Four distinct patterns continue beyond the edge of the saucer, reppearing and refracting. The saucers in this fun set of four by the Dutch brand features swirls, concentric rings, radiating lines and diamonds, all rendered in dark blue. Pieces can be combined with other cups and mugs from the series for the complete look.
