Availability as of January 2008:

We have only one 8-inch luncheon plate left, the Goldfinch, available for $25.  We can obtain more luncheon plates upon request.  Cup and saucer sets -- shown below -- are $30 per set.  Hutschenreuther made two styles.  Most of our sets are the "footed" cups (pictured below) with matching saucers measuring 2-7/8 inches.  In this style, all birds are available except Baltimore Oriole and Scarlet Tanager.  In the OTHER style (top of the cup flares out and saucer measures 2-3/4 inches), we have only one set (Goldfinch). Condition on all pieces is very good to excellent, with occasional minor discoloration of gold trim. No chips, cracks, or crazing; some pieces with minor scratches.  The bird designs are not precise reproductions of Audubon's art, but are based on his images. All cups include a botanical detail on the back that matches that shown on the saucer. There are detail photos below for the blue jay set.  Ask for photos of any set you are interested in. 

Matching cups and saucers -- these are small, more like espresso than regular teacup size.  A few sets would  make a lovely display. Front row, left to right: Redstart, Yellow Warbler, Barn Swallow, Baltimore Oriole (sold). Back row, left to right, Scarlet Tanager (sold), Cardinal, Blue Jay, Goldfinch.
