MACKENZIE-CHILDS Espresso Cup & Saucer Set…
At $99.95 for a two-cup set, you're paying for the hand-painted craft and MacKenzie-Childs brand prestige; a standard espresso pair runs far less, so this is a design and heirloom premium.
What it is
A pair of hand-painted enamel espresso cups with matching saucers, dressed in MacKenzie-Childs' signature black-and-white Courtly Check pattern. Perfect for anyone who believes morning coffee should look as good as it tastes.

What we looked at
- 01Design & Material Hand-painted enamel over steel, Courtly Check (black-and-white checkered) pattern
The enamel-on-steel construction is durable for regular use, and the hand-painted detail gives each set a small variation—no two are identical. The iconic checkered pattern is the house signature and unmistakably MacKenzie-Childs.
- 02Capacity & Count 2 cups at 3 ounces each + 2 matching 3.75-inch saucers
True espresso proportions—3 ounces is a genuine shot size, not a compromise. The saucer scale matches, so you get a cohesive, proportional set rather than oversized cups on undersized plates.
- 03Use & Longevity Enamel over steel, hand-painted finish
Enamel is chip-prone if banged hard, but it's dishwasher-safe and non-porous once cured. This is drinkware that lives on display as much as in daily rotation—the pattern is the point.
