8341-19. [demitasse cup] United States Coast Guard. Scarce original early pattern United States Coast Guard demitasse cup manufactured in the early years of the Twentieth Century for use in ships’ wardrooms and at some ‘stag’ stations. Made of heavy white institutional type china, cup is of the scarce earlier pattern which includes one turquoise stripe around the perimeter bordered by two thin brown stripes. Below the stripe are the United States Coast Guard emblem in turquoise with crossed anchors surrounding Coast Guard shield. Bottom labeled “Walker China, Vitrified Bedford, Ohio A-49”. Cup measures 2 ½” diameter 2 ¼” high. With only very light wear, this is a rare, beautiful piece. We have had very few pieces in this color pattern over the years, making this quite worthwhile.
