Gefle U.E. | Lillemor (Svart) | Mannerheim | AU Teacup | Percy

Arthur Percy usually gets the credit for this cup, and yet he named it Lillemor - because Lillemor Mannerheim actually designed it (under his lead). It comes in blue, red and in this version black. Lillemor Mannerheim worked for Gefle in the 1950s, but also had a career at Rörstrand and as a freelance designer. She married a count (and that's the least interesting thing about her!). I've only found two other designs by her (although maybe like the Lillemor, there are others which aren't attributed) The others are Solros and Tropik.

This listing is for the very popular AU cup model and the big teacup version. Cup diameter (at the top) 9.5cm Saucer diameter 15.5cm

There are no nicks or scratches on the cup, or the saucer. The pattern is uneven in some places, but that's from the original manufacturing process; not a flaw, a benefit! There is also crackelure throughout the cup, but no cracks in the pottery. (see testing video!)
