La Rochere's Napoleon Bee Tea/Coffee Cups are sturdy and perfect for everyday use. Classic in design, our cups are both casual and elegant and will compliment any table, a beautiful way to serve coffee or tea at the end of your meal or at the start your morning. The Bee symbol was one of Napoleons symbols, chosen to appear on coats, furnishings, fabrics and luggage. The glass is fired at a high temperature producing an exceptional quality that is crystal clear and durable. A pressure seam is sometimes visible, which is the characteristic mark left by the mould in which the glass is pressed symbolizing its French heritage.
