Tea Cup Tuesday-Summer Showers and Flowers

 

Hello All!
Welcome to Tea Cup Tuesday!
I am glad you are here!

It is dark and stormy as I write this...
Lucky to have such thunderous weather!

It is a good summer day to choose a cup of flowers....


such as this beauty....
one of my most elegant cups.


The fine gold designs that ring the cup really look lovely,
and the bouquets of summer flowers are vibrant in color!


The gold trimmed edges look so gorgeous together!


This sweet summer cup has a kidney shaped golden handle.


...and such a fabulous shape! 
I just love it!


Were you able to guess who manufactured it?
.........
E.B. Foley!

Happy August to All of YOU
May you August be even more Joy Full than July!
Hugs,
Terri

  1. Hey Terri ...

    What a beauty you're sharing today... Foley tea sets are always so elegant. I'm loving the way the golden posies are wrapped around the inner cup ... while the outer is artistically simple...

    Of course , pink is my favourite colour ..SO ..Please may I sip at teatime from this little charmer. Thanks for sharing.
    Hugs

  6. Hi, Terri
    I have sooo been out of the loop of late. I haven't even visited most of my favorite blogs! Yours being among my favorites! I am putting your blog button on my blog side bar so it will take me seconds to reach your blog easier.
    Oooo! Thunder and lightening! I love dark storms. It puts such atmosphere into the day or night, unless it gets out of hand, of course.
    Love the photos of the tea cups!
    I should participate some time. My camera has been obstinate lately and it has been very annoying especially trying to transfer photos to my files.
    Ta! Ta!

    Question...have you ever seen a cup with a number inside? It is 12 and is in a circle with a litle tail, like a baloon. I received a teacup for my birthday.It is made by Royal Court It has sunflowers, berries,fruit, and blosooms. Would you email me or if anyone sees this and knows....help. my email is godsgalgail@windstream.net
