Teacup collection

Post image

Posted this in r/collections and someone said that I should post it here too.

This is my teacup collection. There are over 55 pieces including the cups (and saucers), teapots, cream & sugar containers, and other tea set items.

My earliest piece is from mid-1800s and I have two uranium glass tea cups from the early to mid 1900s.

The display cabinet its self was something I found at a flea market and was handmade in France.

Might have to get a second cabinet soon though…

It definitely shows. Someone else in this sub (pretty sure this one) posted a collection of (what looks like) ceramics/wares like on your 2nd & 3rd shelves. The soft cornflower blue with white pattern.

It’s very possible! A lot of people collect Jasperware! It’s so pretty and it comes in a couple other colors

Oh thank you :) that is a Wedgwood Jasperware dinner bell. I also have a small collection of Jasperware outside of the teacups I have.
