China Cups

My Grandma had a collection of china cups that were passed on to our Mom, who then passed them on to my sister and me. This is one of them, and I can tell you that it was not an easy thing to photograph!
I wanted the saucer and the side of the cup to show and be lighted, so I couldn't set the cup on the saucer. I placed them in so many different ways in different kinds of light. It required more than 50 photos to get an acceptable one! Not perfect, but OK.
