Egg-cup, soft-paste porcelain, saucer-shaped stand with foot ring and band of alternating fleurs-de-lys and dots moulded in relief around the rim, a shallow well in the centre to which is fixed a stem formed from six overlapping and spreading moulded leaves and supporting a cup moulded as six larger overlapping leaves; the cup and stem picked out in gold, the interior entirely gilded, the stand enamelled with a band of pink roses and green leaves and with a gilded dentil edge.
This egg-cup is the only known example of this shape made at Nantgarw. It matches a porcelain waster found at the Nantgarw site by Dr Glyn Strawbridge.
