This porcelain coffee cup, part of a service, was made by the Doccia Porcelain Manufactory in Italy between 1755 and 1765. The cup is decorated with a relief scene of a nymph and a putto amidst a sea of swans and seahorses. The cup is a fine example of the Rococo style, a popular art movement in the 18th century that emphasized ornate decoration and asymmetrical designs.
