Small receptacle in a crockery set (6)

I believe the answer is:

teacup

(Other definitions for teacup that I've seen before include "China possibly" , "Earl Grey holder?" , "Scene of unnecessary storm!" , "Drinking container that may contain a small storm" , "leaves on one's bottom?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
