Judith Glover Teawares


Ever heard of the British artist Judith Glover? I had not until I opened a Christmas present from my parents and found a whimsical Judith Glover teapot and two trios, one of which I thought I'd share here today. This particular design seemed like one my tea friends would appreciate!

I love the pastel colors and the whimsical look of the designs, especially that pretty three-tier tea tray.

Some of the designs are repeated on the teacup and saucer.

These designs are from the "Spice of Life" series, and I especially agree with the sentiment that "a little of what you fancy does you good." If you want to see more of Judith Glover's work, go here.

Your Judith Glover teaware is very pretty. The white background with the soft colored tea theme illustrations is lovely. Thanks for the link.

Adorable! I've not heard of her either until looking at your blog. By the way, your blog is very nice. I've learned a lot about tea and tea things just by coming here. Thank you.

Very cute! I haven't seen her before. I sometimes like a more sturdy, cute teacup too. Thanks!

What a pretty set! I love it, the soft colors remind me of my Marjolein Bastin set, but more whimsical of course.

Hi Angela,
Thank you for featuring my design on your lovely blog. I haven't seen samples and wasn't sure if it was even on sale yet and there you are in America drinking from it! Very glad to hear that you like it.

Best wishes to you and all your followers who said nice things about my work, much appreciated.
Judith

Does anyone know where I can find these online? I have googled my fingers off. I need a set of these ;-)

Angela McRae said...

Lynda, I just wanted to add that my mom found these at HomeGoods, the T.J. Maxx sister store, so if you live near one you may want to check there. Good luck!

I went online today looking for her tea cup and saucer. I actually bought one set at TJ Maxx last night and was hoping I could find a few more on her website. I didn't realize she is an award winning artist in the UK until I did a little bit of research on her tonight. I love the whimsical design and have started collecting different style tea cups. I think this would be used for more casual events with my friends. Love it.
