A rare 19th-century Etruscan Majolica teacup and saucer by Griffin, Smith & Hill, showcasing a beautifully hand-glazed bamboo and palm leaf motif in rich shades of brown, yellow, green, and blush pink. The cup’s interior is finished in a soft lilac-pink glaze that perfectly complements the tropical relief detailing.
Stamped “Etruscan Majolica G.S.H.” on the underside — the hallmark of the renowned Pennsylvania pottery active from 1879–1889. The piece exemplifies the vibrant color palette and naturalistic themes of the Victorian majolica era.
A collector’s favorite and a striking accent for open shelving, tea vignettes, or display cabinets.
