Royal Albert Pre WW2 Polka Dot Tea Cups

I have been collecting teacups and as I wrote earlier, have my Aunt's and Gram's (as well as my Mom's china). I did start collecting some on ebay and fell in love with this pattern. This is my new passion. They are so bright and cheerful.

It must be an 'age', over 40 er 50 thing - china tea cups, watching the birds, enjoying my flowers..oh and my kitties:0)

I want 3 more to complete this set - I gave a couple as gifts.

  1. Hi Deb...These are so cute! I'm not familiar with this pattern. Pre WWII you say? Aren't they so much more modern looking? Hope you find your other 3 teacups!...Debbie

    The more I look at your blog the more I see we have in common. Thanks so much for following me. I have got to get these t-cups. I took am crazy about them. I've made it a tradition with my Grandkids to tell stories and have tea parties.... of course not with my good stuff, BUT....pokie dots are my rage.......(I don't tell many for they all think I'm crazy), did you say you got these on ebay. When my medical bills from Ed settle down, Ihave got to look into these.. You are a dear for sharing and following my blog... do you have a follow button that I'm missing.........
