| The Charm House shape teacup (shown with an Epicure coffee cup) is one of a set recently found in the textured Epicure pink glaze. They were purchased along with matching Epicure saucers. Epicure was originally produced with a coffee cup but no teacup. While mold records indicate a teacup was eventually created for the line, there is no evidence it ever went into production. It may be that HLC used these Charm House shape teacups for special orders.
These are not to be confused with the plain pink Charm House teacups which were used with Dura-Print and other lines of the 1950s.
