The First Teacups.

Even after tea was introduced into
Europe and had come into general use
teacups were scarce. At the same time
coffee was introduced; but, apart from
Constantimople, the first coffee cups in
Europe date back only as far as 1916 in
Venice, 1859 in Paris, 1862 In London
and 1894 in Leipsic. From the first,
however, the conventional oriental cof-
fee cup, without stem or handle, was
little used, and in Germany not al all
The Chinese teacup was used for tea,
coffee and chocolate as we'll. Specimens
Of porcelain were undoubtedly intro
duced into Europe in the middle ages,
yet not till the sixteenth century were
cups imported from China in any great
quantities, and even tnen it was as arti-
cles Of vertu. Nest Of those found their
way back into China again, as collect
ing porcelain is lasting fad there, and
high prices are paid for good specimens.
The collection of Chinese porcelain, if
only the genuine specimens are desired,
requires immense study and knowledge,
as the Chinese are skillful imitators
and put numerous falsifications on the
market. ..
