Teacup and Tabletop Tuesday

Tea Cup Tuesday, co-hosted by Martha at Martha’s Favorites and Terri at Artful Affirmations.

As she does each week, in her current post Martha shared several very beautiful teacups. In describing them Martha usually lets us know the name of the handle design of the cup. One of this week’s selections is a Haviland Limoges pattern called "Autumn Leaf." As Martha noted, it has a ring handle, and is the only one in her collection. Martha asked if any else had a ring handle cup. So I took a look at my blue and white teacup collection and spotted a pale blue Limoges. I think this qualifies, Martha – what do you think?

It is solid blue inside with stylized white and blue flowers on the outside and on the saucer:

I made a little setting using the teacup and saucer with one of my tea books, Afternoon Teas: Recipes, History, Menus "A Between Friends Cookbook" by Pam McKee, Lin Webber and Ann Krum,

I also added a light blue rock crystal candle stick and candle. The candlestick was a gift from one of my sisters many years ago. The tablecloth is one of my favorite white embroidered in blue.
