saucer
Teacup resting place
A saucer is a small shallow dish, typically round with a slight depression, designed to hold a cup.
The cup sits in the depression, and the saucer catches drips or holds a spoon.
By extension, anything saucer-shaped: a flying saucer, saucer-eyed with surprise.
She set the teacup back on its saucer.
