The rights to produce the Nelros Cup of Fortune were soon transferred to the Aynsley company, and the cup was manufactured for decades on a succession of pottery shapes. Eventually it was discontinued.
In 2018, Aynsley produced a new version of this cup and saucer for distribution in Japan. The 2018 Aynsley Cup of Fortune Commemorative Edition series was glazed in vivid solid colours, with gilded rims and edges, featuring an open cup shape with a spurred handle, reminiscent of the Paragon Category:Signs and Omens cups of the the 1930s. This series of cups was manufactured for distribution exclusively in Japan, apparently as a way to keep the Cup of Fortune trademark active and up to date. These cups were produced in a limited run, and came in special boxes with instructions in Japanese.
