The main field of the cup is decorated with alternately facing and backing foliate scrolls ending in paterae, joined by swags of 'jewels' and separated by formal arrangements of stylised flowers. Below is a band of conjoined stylised green and red buds. The borders above and below are composed of a wavy band of trailing leaves on a blue stippled ground between two wide gold bands tooled with two rows of inverted v s with cross-over bands at intervals.

Parpette worked mainly on this type of decoration between 1780-5. The latter left the factory in 1784, and after 1786 this type of decoration was rarely executed. The decoration of this 18th century set, however, may have been applied in the 19th century. Large covered cups and saucers were used to take hot milk drinks or chocolate and earlier examples were frequently described in the factory's records as a 'gobelet à lait'. reference term-106779
