This is the cup that my father drank his morning coffee out of every single day I can ever remember seeing him at breakfast. It's kind of a ritual cup, and that makes it special.

I like the way you've placed this on the table and used the patterns of the table to give this an geometric design, though in general centered compositions are a bit weaker, and the pattern here is perhaps not strong enough to make this work as pop-art does, or as an abstract.
Provocative one, breaking the rule of thirds, but I like it this way. :-) Colours are very fine together and I think your border helps your photo constructively. The handle breaks the symmetric composition and I love this effect, too!
The Bg suits the cup very well, keeoing it all browns. Perhaos what could be imporved is using the 2/3 rule and having the cup off center and maybe a different angle.
the textures and colors of this image are lovely, nice clarity and focus -- I expect that people might cite the rule of thirds but this composition calls out for centering
speck on saucer a bit distracting
