I have five total but will start with two. This #2 and actually may be a demi taste cup. Not sure. Also hand signed and in perfect condition. Richard Ginora(?) Made in Italy.

In the past I sold a couple of cups and saucers by Ginori and they did well.

Nice thing, but not really a mystery.

The mystery is why folks might be inclined to pay ridiculous prices for vintage porcelain on internet auction and other platform sites, on the basis that a seller with unknown reputation suggests that they're rare.

Not exactly the same pattern, but would you rather pay £820 on "1st Dibs" or £12 (reduced from £27) on "Selency"?

Hit your pictures with Google Lens for things you have. Its a great tool, I use it often.

I try this often, but it's yet to work for me. Given my google-fu I think a lot of the things I have are hard to find. Any tips on Google Lens success?

Hi. Best I can offer is use the clearest picture you can and zero the search area right in on the object like this below.
