Thank you for the kind feedback, everyone.
I actually had a ton of fun photographing the cups... in fact, in taking the pictures it was like discovering their beauty and delicacy for the very first time.
And I owe it all to Tenuki, due to his "Pics or it didn't happen" challenge - and of course the example of his stunning photos! Thanks Tenuki!
Hmmm... what to photograph next?... {happily plotting}

Russian Soul and Victoria:
I'm glad you like the blue-and-white cup! It's made by an English pottery named Shelley, and the name of the pattern is "Dainty Blue". (Or I should say "was", since it's been discontinued and is now considered vintage/antique.) There's an antique shop in my town that has a whole shelf filled with these... to very stunning effect.

Recent Daiso purchases, part of the 'raining pottery' week. 1.50 each, I love that store.
