Thanks for sharing the photos. Some of us around here live for those glimpses of other people's teasures! Lovely things you have there.

I've clearly been watching too much PBS lately. My first thought on seeing that awesome bowl was "Wow, Space's grandchildren will make a killing on Antiques Roadshow someday."

That's just wrong on so many levels...

That's something I've thought about, beacause I'm not having kids, what will happen to all my tea ware when I die? For sure no one around here would know what to do with it. :?

This is part of a set that my mom bought back when she was single and has passed my way.

And just because... this is my view while drinking tea in the summer (my back yard). Life is good, and it ain't just the tea that makes the experience. :D
