June 6, 2011 -- Espresso Cups

My mother used to call cups and saucers like these "demi-tasse" cups. But we know them today as espresso cups. This particularly lovely set was given to me by a good Turkish friend when I had done some teaching with her and her faculty.

Regarding the photo, what appears to be a shadow on the right side, covering the saucers, is a plastic sheet to hold them in place.
I used available light with flash for fill.

Now these cups are looking for a new home. Never having been used, we think they new someone else to love them. If you are interested, let me know. The gift will be played forward.
