History
These miniature stoneware cups are characteristic of the traditional French utilitarian pottery industry, particularly associated with regions like Puisaye, Berry, or Digoin, which are famous for their durable "grès" (stoneware) production. Often produced as salesman samples, dollhouse toys, or novelty items, such pieces reflect the enduring appeal of rustic French country pottery from the late 19th through the mid-20th centuries.
