The most striking features of this cup are the various indications of pleasure and social enjoyment. These being shown by the cake and butterfly, while the orchid in conjunction predicts that the consultant's personal charm and power of attraction will result in a future of wealth and social distinction.
The pillar, near the rim and handle, gives a pleasing assurance of security and loyal friends. The bird flying from the cage brings joyful news, that something which has been an obstacle in the way of the consultant's desires is about to be removed, and much future happiness may be looked for.
The figure of the man fishing from a rock foreshows the arrival of a visitor, who will have some pleasant news to tell.
The toque opposite the handle, but at the bottom of the cup, gives further evidence of the good luck coming to this fortunate consultant.
