Prize piece of china? (3)
I believe the answer is:
cup
This clue could be a double definition.
'prize' is the first definition.
(cup is a kind of prize)
'piece of china?' is the second definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps you can see a link between them that I don't see?
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for cup that I've seen before include "Chalice; trophy" , "Prize; vessel" , "Award; mug" , "Trophy; drinking vessel" , "Drinking bowl" .)
