    This mini cup has no markings. It is about a 4 oz size cup.
    It is part of a vast collection of items from my late mothers inventory.

      The overall design is transfer print - the gold lustre is hand painted. Much of the gold lustre is worn away. Not possible to give you that sort of information since the cup is completely unmarked. Quality porcelain/ceramics normally have pattern numbers on the bottom for identification purposes.

      So this is most likely from crafter as a hobby piece.
      Thank you for the help!!!

      Your cup was made by the Schlegelmilch Porcelain C0. and if marked would have the RS Germany stamp like the example you can see at this eBay auction. Even the best manufacturers in the business did not mark all of their pieces. As a frugal collector with "champagne taste on a beer budget" I'm grateful that lots of RS Prussia pieces were not marked in any way. Some RS collectors are so afraid of buying a fake piece that they pass up real treasures.

      rjkinkent - thank you for this example. It is nice to think this treasure is not a fake.
      Some of my other cups look to maybe have had a stamp that was washed off, so they are hard to figure out too.
      Now to just get these beauties into the hands of people who will appreciate them.
