William Hutton & Sons Espresso cup

[JanGroen]

Good day
I have found this small cup and saucer this week. It seems to be an espresso cup from around 1892 by William Hutton & Sons. I can't seem to find similar ones online. Are these rare? Can't think that coffee would have been popular back then.

Hi Jannie,

Is this silver covered ceramic, or enamelled silver?

Coffee has been a popular beverage for hundreds of years.

Hi Trev
It is very heavy and about 3mm thick. So it looks like silver covering ceramic.
