Tea Cup for my Birthday

02.07.2015 by Leah //

February is my birth month, so it is only but fitting that I chose this particular tea cup and saucer set from Royal Albert’s “Flower of the Month” series, which I bought from @paperstrawlove.

This beautiful Royal Albert tea cup and saucer set is already vintage (having been released in the 70’s) but it’s in very pristine, almost new, condition that I didn’t mind paying good money for it.

There’s not a sign showing that it has been used extensively!  Even the bottom part of both the tea cup and the saucer are very clean and scratch-free.

Impeccable details.  The violets look very alive to me.  No traces of paint or glaze loss, either.

If you are a serious tea cup or Royal Albert collector, check out @paperstrawlove‘s extensive catalog on bone china tea cups – both vintage and new.  They also sell other lovely items like mason jars and paper straws.

I used to love taking pics of food for #foodstagram but now that everything's in takeout boxes, nakakatamad mag-food styling hehe! Anyway, whether it's in fancy plate or takeout box - the food should still taste good. And this one definitely did not disappoint! The souffle pancakes were oh so good, and despite traveling in a box were really soft up to the last bite. Yumyum! #doitforthegram
