Wouldn't you love the story behind the tea cup and who did he bring it to? his mom? a love?
Very pretty. I'm wondering where you got it from. Did it come from an antique store or estate sale?
Such sweet pieces, LV ... wish we knew all the history/story behind it.
Have a lovely eve ~

Good Evening LV Sweetie...
Oh what beautiful treasures you have this evening. I love seeing your shares. That tea cup and saucer is SO pretty. How wonderful it was gifted to you. I also love the plate. It is really pretty. Treasures to bring you happiness when you walk by.
Hope you are having a wonderful evening sweetie. Many hugs and much love, Sherry
Your teacup and saucers are so pretty LV...and I think the most unique that I've ever seen...I love that gold detail and the tiny size of it. I'm sure if it could talk, it could sure tell us some stories :)
Hope you have a nice night
Big hugs,
Queeni
I love the cup and saucer.

Thats the most darling tea cup!! Drinking out of that would make you feel so special :)

If you think about it, it's kind of amazing that something so delicate made it here.
I love the last plate with the bluebirds! It does look rather Japanese.
The cup and saucer are beautiful.
That saucer is pretty neat-love the gold star on the bottom!
Hi LV. What beautiful pieces you have to show us today and perfect for the link up. I have lots of pretty pieces of china around the house too, and, strangely enough, the vintage look is really coming back bigtime!!
What beautiful vintage china. The teacup is so unique in shape. Thank you for sharing these lovely items with us.
LV, Your vintage cup and saucer hit me close to home, for my dad brought my mother four little cups and a little tea pitcher when he came home after serving in the south Pacific. I remember wanting to play with them, but, of course I couldn't, for they were valued treasures belonging to Mother.
We broke records here yesterday...115 which was hotter than Death Valley!!! Thunder and a little rain this morning...hope this is a good sign that the worse may be over. Hope you will be having cooler days ahead, too! Mary
LV, these are very special and gorgeous pieces. Are they family pocessions? Our heat has gotten better, in the high 80's today.
