The green and blue tartan plaid ribbon design is gorgeous with the shield. Perfect replacement or display piece. Of course if you drink from this cup you may never go back to stoneware again. Fine Bone China makes the best vessel to hold tea or even a small cuppa coffee. This should hold 6 to 7 ounces of liquid. No chips, cracks or crazing I believe this is a vintage piece from the 1950s. I did some reading up and found some trivia for you: It is souvenir style piece sold in Canada (Nova Scotia is province in Canada) . Nova Scotia is Latin for "New Scotland." Nova Scotia was colonized by Scotland In 1621. But there were issues and later on there was recolonization during 1770 thru 1815, nearly 15,000 Scots settled in Nova Scotia, also known as the "Birthplace of New Scotland." There is fascinating history you can google search for more complete details.
