Tea Cup for my Birthday

02.07.2015 by Leah // 3 Comments

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.

#throwback to Easter 2019 when @ajdeleon77 and I t #throwback to Easter 2019 when @ajdeleon77 and I took mommy and daddy to a double date at Rockwell Powerplant. Today is daddy's 11th month in heaven 💜 The coming weeks are sure going be tough for me because the painful memories from last year will start coming back as we approach his 1st death anniversary. I miss our family bonding time whether in Cebu or Makati, at the mall or simply at home. The over-extended quarantine has made it very difficult for us create new memories as a family (outside videocalls, that is). But I know that with God's grace we will overcome. 🙏

More than half of the leaves dried up.  But look, new buds have started to say 'Hi' just last week 🤗 Need talaga ng patience kapag #plantita ka. 😁
