New York Metropoles Paul Morand Mug Limoges Bernardaud NEW

This extremely rare mug features the same artwork on its front and rear surface consisting of images of 2 buildings and the Statue Of Liberty's Head between them.

There is gold trim wrapping around the exterior surface just below the rim and the handle is finished in the same color on its top surface.

There is the following quote in French by Paul Morand on the bottom surface:

"New-York est l'image meme

de laville, l'expression

supreme de la ruee urbaine."

This translates (according to Google Translate) in English to:

"New York is the very image of the city. The supreme expression of the urban street"
