    Does anyone know what this pattern is called? does it even have a name? I believe this is porcelain or china as is it thin and light not heavy like a stoneware. It is a small cup and saucer - perhaps demitasse or from a child's set. The cup handle seems to have a bamboo look to it. There are no maker's marks that I saw. The plate or saucer has a few imperfections in the way of bubbles in the glaze. The cup is 3 inches wide and 1 1/4 inch tall. The plate or saucer (it does not have the inner ring to hold the cup like most saucers would) is 4 1/4 inches in diameter. Let me know if you have any clues. I have seen one picture on Google images that is an Ebay listing http://www.ebay.com/itm/VINTAGE-DEMITASSE-OLD-FLOW-BLUE-CUP-AND-SAUCER-/371256169626?hash=item567097949a. This one is Similar but not really the same - the plate is very different. And a cup on Flickr. https://www.flickr.com/photos/jillhannah/4485460869/in/photostream/
    Here it says this is a cup from a child's tea set, but no further information. Shows a picture of the relative size of the cup to a tea bag.

    Any insight you could give me would be much appreciated. Thanks!!
