Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Glass Cup Plates: A Guide to Collectors
The practice which we condemn as bad etiquette today was in good repute among our ancestors, as these cup plates abundantly testify. Great Grandma could not bear to have the linen stained or the mahogany marred, so when tea was poured into the saucer to cool the cup was neatly placed in the little plate provided for it.
