Chintz

Do you know about chintzware? My mom has collected a piece here and there over the years at antique shows and estate sales. Chintz teacups, plates and serving pieces are printed with an all-over fabric design. Highly collectible and very sweet, chintzware is perfect for an old-fashioned tea party. Want to know more? You can learn a lot about chintz here.

What? Oh, the rose is a David Austin English rose called Abraham Darby. Love it!

Even the best cup of tea tastes a little better served in one of these teacups! Thanks

I have one cup and saucer left to me by an aunt! And I love the rose! Very pretty collection that your mother has, Anne.
