r/teacups

I don’t know the age of this piece. I bought it many years ago. I thought it was very pretty and I like the elaborate border.
The plate is signed by the artist in the central portion. It’s a little hard to read; I think it might say P. Hall.

Now that I’ve found my new favorite sub, I will have to pull out more of my collection.

…here’s a very pretty one from Gray’s Pottery.
I just love individual breakfast sets. The tiny toast racks are always so cute! I have some breakfast sets for one in my chintz collection, but here is a non-chintz set that I enjoy. There is something so self-indulgent about the concept.

Happy to take individual photos if anyone wants to see more details :)

I've been casually collecting for many years now, only getting ones that I truly love and that feel special when I hold them. It all started with the bottom left teacup on my shelf which my mother gifted to me. It had originally been gifted to her along with several other cups and saucers by a lovely customer when she used to be a banker long ago. I always admired them, and she gave it to me to start my own collection. The rest were found at antique stores or gifted by family and friends. I have several others that I switch out with some of these for autumn and winter. These are more spring and summer colors, although some stay out year-round. I also have a few teapots as well that I should photograph someday. I'm excited to share my collection with you all!
