These a a little bigger
than the teacups here



But still not really 
enough to wet your whistle


This one is marked


Has very pretty roses on it



This one has no markings and is
rather odd in shape
and I'm not sure the base goes
with the cup
but it came into the thrift shop this way



the cup is light blue
the bas light green

  1. Hi: I love the Lefton tea cup it is beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing it. I have never seen one with a pedestal so thin, just stunning. Have a wonderful week. I hope you will join us again next week. Blessings, Martha

  3. Very pretty, Jo.

    I love the base on the pink rose one. It's as if it is raising its head with great pride. I like the uniqueness of the green one as well. The little feet are just so appealing.

    My collection is small as I started collecting tea cups last summer when I picked up a few at acution. I was researching them a bit this past weekend and one of them actually appears to be worth something. However, I collect them for their beauty, not their monetary value.

    Happy Tuesday! La

  4. Thank you so much for sharing with us such fabulously unique pieces! I see ones like these sometimes and do not pick them up only because I really like to use mine to drink from, but after seeing yours I think I should bring some home just to look pretty!
    They really are lovely.
    Thanks so much for sharing.
    Hugs,
    Terri

  5. Your tea cups are beautiful. Since I am a rose fan, I really like the Lefton piece; but the other is quite unique.

    Happy Teacup Tuesday!

    Hugs,
