Porcelain cup

Our Porcelain cup section includes cups and saucers designed for serving espresso and short black coffee, for the family table as well as for the hospitality trade. Porcelain is favoured here for its resistance to thermal shock, its neutral taste and its durability under intensive use. This selection belongs to the Coffee cup and saucer range within Tableware.

Choosing your porcelain coffee cup

What capacity for a coffee?

For an espresso, a capacity of 7 to 10 cl is enough. For a longer coffee or a lungo-style service, opt for 12 to 15 cl. Check that the cup and saucer match, as they are often sold together.

Is porcelain suitable for professional use?

Yes: vitrified porcelain withstands the dishwasher and repeated stacking, which makes it a standard in cafés, hotels and restaurants. For very intensive service, choose references described as reinforced.

What alternatives to porcelain?

Depending on use, you can compare with the glass cup, the polycarbonate cup for breakage-prone environments, or the Revol porcelain crumpled cup.
