Urge copper quietly to get item of tableware (6)
I believe the answer is:
eggcup
'item of tableware' is the definition.
'eggcup' can be an answer for 'tableware' (eggcup is a kind of tableware). I am not sure about the 'item of' bit.
'urge copper quietly' is the wordplay.
'urge' becomes 'egg' (as in egging someone on).
'copper' becomes 'cu' (chemical symbol).
'quietly' becomes 'p' (p for piano and quiet).
'egg'+'cu'+'p'='EGGCUP'
'to get' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for eggcup that I've seen before include "Bearer of breakfast (with soldiers)" , "Holder of an oval thing" , "Breakfast placed here" , "what held a problem for curate?" .)
