My favorite teacup is an oversize antique transferware beauty from France.
I mostly drink hot cocoa from it in winter.
But summertime is the finest to show off its vines and blooms.
It has a few age spots and small flaws, and I always give it the care its age deserves.
But I really just like to have it nearby.
It doesn't spend time harbored away in a china closet.
It stays front and center in the kitchen where I think it likes to know what's going on.
It is an international traveler after all.
I'm crazy for old marks on china.

What a lovely tea cup and table setting.
ReplyDeleteLovely teacup. I had to enlarge the pictures just to see all of the exquisite detail. I can see why you love it so much. I also like your tablescape. The seashells look so nice on that cake stand. Take care.
