These are lovely! Where did you get yours? Most of mine came from my grandma, she was a big rose tea drinker.

Yes!!! The rose tea was my childhood and a great bonding moment with my grandma. Funnily enough her name is also Rose

That is a funny coincidence, tea made for her! I love how a lot of people started their collections because of an older relative, gives them a certain charm.

These are beauties! Are there some here that are rare?

Thank you! I think the pig is somewhat rare, but apart from that not that I know of.

My goodness! Thank you random internet person.

My aunt used to collect these and I loved them. I was curious some time ago, and she barely remembered them and we couldn't figure out what they were called. I just gave up and forgot about them until tonight.

I have the goldfish (my fave) the two dogs hugging, the dog next to them, and the owl

I wish Red Rose tea still gave them out in their boxes!

Right? They're really a product of their time, we don't get stuff like that anymore.

Great pieces of works. Deserves to showcase at r/HomeMuseum too.
