VTT - There's Gold in Them Thar China Cabinets!


I promised Elizabeth of "Home Is Where The Heart Is" that I'd show my 3-legged tea cup today. So I'll show a few other golden items from the china cabinet as well!

The 3-legger is a big cup - coffee size.
This one, also, probably holds a good 8 - 10 ounces (283 grams).
And this one is a petite 1-1/2 inches tall (or short) (3.81 cm)!

Now, go visit Suzanne's blog to see all the other VTT's today!

    These are all so beautiful! I love the 3-legged one, not just for it's design but because it holds a big cup of coffee!

    Hi Sue,

    Oh may the three legged teacup is so lovely! and the way the legs curl is very unusual. What a great find and it even has a matching teapot too, just divine!. Thank you so much for posting your teacup for me to see.
    Have a wonderful day,
    Elizabeth

    Hi Sue,
    I just had to see this pretty little tea cup again and then I noticed you had shown the teacup upside down so we could see the feet, and you know what I thought (I thought it was a mini teapot) oh heavens me, sometimes I really need to wear my glasses even at the computer with a large screen. LOL.
    Enjoy your day,
    Elizabeth

    This is a beautiful collection of unusual pieces. The old souvenir pieces I find especially interesting.

    The gold makes it all look so elegant. I have NEVER seen a 3-legged cup (or any legged cup, for that matter) before! How unique can you get.
