    Hi,
    Can anyone help identify this Paragon pattern and approximate value of this cup & saucer?
    Thanks!

    Welcome to the forum Biju, very nice cup and saucer:) No pattern name, just the number/letters on the bottom to identify. Sellers call this Cabbage Rose, very desirable to buyers. Here is one ending in 6 hours, should give you an idea what yours will be worth.
    If you are going to sell it on EBay, open it up to international buyers, floral cups and saucers are very popular in Vietnam, China, Korea etc.

    Thank you so much for your reply cxgirl!
    So how does value differ for the various Cabbage Rose Paragon cups, since I also found another current listing that seems to be selling for much higher than the one you referenced? I’m a bit lost in this marketplace :(

    Hi @Biju & welcome to the forum!! :happy::happy:

    I think it has something to do with the colors of the flowers as well as the color of the cup & saucer. Some colors & color combinations being more desirable. Unfortunately, I have no idea what colors are the best or more desirable because that is determined by the collectors that have found that particular listing. :wacky::rolleyes:

    I will say the one that cxgirl posted is not done & it is not inconceivable that it might go much higher than it is right now.

    yes, it is a crazy market for Cabbage Rose cups and saucers. The one in the link you posted seems to be the most desirable type, the flowers fill up the saucer and the inside of the cup.
    I agree, the right colour combination will increase the price, especially if it is one that isn't seen very often.
    If you list yours in an auction, you will more than likely get offers for 'buy it now', people are crazy about them. Good Luck if you decide to list yours:)

    The Paragon rose/flower cup and saucer sets that are generally worth the most money have a very large bloom(s) centered in the cup and also on the saucer.
    There are some other Paragon sets that bring really good prices such as the fortune telling ones, ones with figural handles, and those with roses and lots of gold.
