Teapot Tuesday Time!

16 Comments/ 2374/ 0

This beautiful set is one that I am getting from my in-law’s home. I have no idea where it came from or who it belonged to but it is in great shape and obviously pretty old. I laid claim to all of the teapots and teacups in the house that my sister in law did not want. I love it! And to know that it came from my sweet in laws makes it even better.

That is one beautiful set, Beth Ann. You’d better lock that up while you’re on vacation to keep me from getting it! lol

This is really beautiful. What a treasure.

But I’m beginning to wonder, where in the world are you keeping all of these?

Thank, Christine!!! I have a big hutch in Iowa and a set of barrister cases where I keep them. We are moving another beautiful antique hutch back with us so I think my overflow will reside there….I hope!!! 🙂
