The black and chrome is an easy choice and matches the S1 nicely. If I was a little more daring I would have gone for the orange set.

They look TOTALLY AWESOME under the LED lights during dinner parties.
its from 2004 so there are some scratches. the bottom of the cups are rough, but think I'd have to be pretty aggressive to make them scratch.Endo wrote:your top cover doesn't look scratched at all.
yeah, the spoon is admittedly pretty lame. old baby food spoon. gets the job done however. and I don't use the saucers much anymore, unless (rarely) another espresso lover is in the house. still, the cups are a great touch of elegance; worth every penny in my book.Endo wrote:BTW....you need some super expensive caviar spoons to do the cups justice
I thought I'd use these cups daily, but truth be told, I'm too afraid. Like you, I use them for special occasions (like bringing out the fine china and silverware). For daily use, I use my classic ACF cups.jbb wrote:....I don't use the saucers much anymore, unless (rarely) another espresso lover is in the house. still, the cups are a great touch of elegance; worth every penny in my book.
