Hello lovelies. Today is my fifty-fifth day of mandatory leave from my work site due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and today I'm sharing a few of the vintage tea ware items in my Etsy shop Vintage Tea Treasures.
On the far left are two different Minton brand coaster or trinket dish sets. A pink, blue and yellow floral set (standing upper) named Haddon Hall and a red, pink, yellow, blue and purple floral set named Marlow (standing lower). Both are English bone china and each piece is 3-1/2" in diameter and has gold gilding around the upper edge. Useful as coasters or perhaps nice for a pat of butter, a place to store pins, or pretty on your dressing table for jewelry or as a catch-all.
The Aynsley Cottage Garden orange teacup and saucer set (middle) is also made in England and features a beautiful chinoiserie scene with red, yellow and blue flowers and a red butterfly on the inside of the teacup. The outside of the teacup and the top of the saucer are a lovely shade of persimmon or burnt orange. There is gold gilding on the top rim, handle and foot of the teacup and around the perimeter of the saucer. Very nice for the Aynsley collector.
And lastly, an Ellgreave 32 ounce chinoiserie ironstone teapot (far right) made in England. It features the classic 'Indian Tree' stylized pattern. The tree is decorated with blue, yellow and green flowers and red and yellow berries. Two large red peonies embellished with greenery and several other blue flowers surround the tree, and a garden gate sits at the bottom of the scene. A smaller version of the same pattern is on the back of the teapot. Perfect for the chinoiserie collector.
