This painting, made with oil on linen, brings to life the beauty of vintage teacups. The carefully stacked cups, each with their own unique pattern and ornate details, form a playful yet sophisticated whole. The warm gold accents and subtle floral motifs contrast beautifully with the deep, muted background, enhancing the composition.
