Over the weekend I went shopping with my mother and aunt, and as you can see here it was a fruitful "tea" day. The teapot and teacup are full-size, and I have them in the photo so you can see that this old tea tin I found at an antique mall is simply huge!
This is by no means my usual delicate little piece of bone china or silver, but the Daisee Tee Balls tin is just so huge, I had to have it! It's 11-1/2 inches tall, 7-3/4 inches in diameter, and I've already thought of quite a few ways I may use it: umbrella stand, craft room trash can, floral container, plant stand. I wish the lid had been with it, but since it's not I'll just be creative!
I was intrigued that the side panel reveals the tin contained 600 "fancy tea balls" which would each make from 1-4 cups of Fancy Orange Pekoe. So, this tin could have potentially prepared 2,400 cups of tea. Guess one tin a year ought to do you, eh? Actually, this tin also is marked "The Herman Co., Wholesale Grocers, Paterson, New Jersey," so I would assume they supplied restaurants or other large-scale users of tea.
Although I didn't find any teapots in the stores, my mom gave me an early Valentine's gift, this "Pink Love" teapot. And I do love it!
She also had found me a new teacup, this one marked Enesco Japan and "October-Cosmos." One of those flowers-of-the-month series? I may have to look for the other 11 cup and saucer sets!
The tin is a fun find. You must be right about supplying a restaurant. I think it's amusing that they call them tea balls instead of bags. I wonder what they looked like.
ReplyDeleteLove your new teapot. Your mama is good to you.

Tea balls are a new one to me and I hope you find a good use for the tin. Your new hearts teapot is nice as is the teacup, you have a thoughtful mother.

The tin is huge! Great idea to put umbrellas in it.
ReplyDeleteLove your sweet hearts teapot and the cosmos teacup.
I just turned to my husband and said "Angela has my teapot". This is "Lucy's Love" and they produced it about 4-5 years ago - isn't it fun! Unless multiple companies imported this (?) It's from Coastline Imports but they now put Gracie Bone China on the bottom.
ReplyDeleteLove your treasures - we use the expression tea balls too!

ReplyDeleteI'm wondering if the tin held flowering teas which are like round balls. (forget what I said before as I needed to look at it again) Also...I have a large tin with french on it like this and I use it (lid off) for my kitchen utensils where I can grab them quickly by the stove!
What an unusual tin? Perfect for some tea decor! LOVE the heart teapot, and I think I spied it on Bernideen's blog a couple of days ago, too. I have the May teacup in the series of flower ones, a friend at church gave it to me after hearing me say I like lily of the valley. It doesn't have the maker's name, but it is the same shape and iridescent finish as yours.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you spent a fun Saturday with your mom and aunt. Your mom is the equivalent of Linda's friend, Mary [Friendship Tea blog]. Both are always finding great tea treasures to pass along.
ReplyDeleteGreat finds, and great fun with family!
ReplyDeleteSeveral years ago I found the June cup and gave it to my friend Judy for her birthday. The June cup had roses. I just loved the finish .
ReplyDeleteThere's a January one on eBay but it ends very soon. Funny to notice it today after reading your blog. http://www.ebay.com/itm/VINTAGE-JAPAN-NORLEANS-IRIDESCENT-BONE-CHINA-TEACUP-SAUCER-JANUARY-CARNATION-/380567437238?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item589b963fb6

ReplyDeleteYou may think this is strange, but my favorite thing there is the tin. What a fun find. Can't wait to hear what you do with it.
ReplyDeleteGreat treasures, Angela! It sounds like you, your Mom and your Aunt had a wonderful time. That teacup is so pretty, I love the curvy handle and the base of the teacup. Your Mom has a great eye for treasures, just like you! Joanie
ReplyDeleteThe tin is awesome. Let us know what you decide to do with it.

ReplyDeleteThe release doesn't say how the District managed to pass Boston, but I suspect it has to
do with the economy. The District has fared comparatively well in the downturn; this region is said to be somewhat recession proof.

male sex toys As we walked along, we encountered
a father and son who were deeply involved in what appeared to be the boy's first lesson in riding a bicycle sans training wheels.
Despite the father's patient encouragement, the kid
couldn't seem to get the hang of it. He'd start out okay,
but just as soon as his dad let go of the bike, it would begin to wobble and the
boy would eventually crash. male sex toys
fleshlight toy I found out about my first little kink at
a pretty young age, when my first boyfriend held down my
wrists while we were making out on his bed. He pushed my arms down on either side of my head and
straddled me. The second he bit my lip I knew two things.
In a Nutshell Study titled "Blue Bedroom," a man was lying in bed with
the covers pulled up. A shotgun with string attached to the
trigger was on the floor beside an overturned chair next to the bed.
The blood from his head wound was splattered on the wall in the direction away from the shotgun.

dog dildo As a young Latina in a community with few others like me, I often felt a little alien. I grew
up with different cultural values, unaware that many others like me experienced the same thing or that these values were a product of culture at all.
Knowing what my experiences good and bad
were predicated upon helped me contextualize my life.
I am of the mind that since more than 50% of marriages in this
country end in divorce that we must look at the relationship model we are laboring
under. Maybe the romantic ideal is simply an illusion. Try as we may (sit down,
Senators) we can't honestly try to explain away the divorce rate by saying all these couples
simply married the wrong people. dog dildo
male sex toys While this toy pretty much fails at what it's advertised
purpose is, we haven't thrown out our Accommodator quite yet.
It still makes a neat little anal toy and it even has
handles! We're keeping this one on board
for my fiance, who is new to anal play and in need of smaller toys.
Though there's not much of a base on the actual dildo, as long
as those big noodly straps stay on we've got a pretty surefire way of keeping it
from slipping in too far. male sex toys
cheap fleshlight Flip the cap open and you can just barely smell this

And I haven't had lunch yet. I think I'll go get a super yummy vegetarian buritto from Baja Grill.
The desk clerk at Cat Caf Hapineko told me that it all started in Taiwan, then spread to Japan and Korea.
Most of the clientele are women in their 20s, followed by straight

For its part, Mission blames the cuts on low demand and financial losses
at these locations. Deciding to close these labor and delivery services was "incredibly difficult," Mission Health spokeswoman Rowena Buffett Timms told Carolina

wholesale vibrators This allows the man to put it behind the ball sack and
then easily close it to align the locking pin holes.
After installing the locking pin, add the proper amount of
spacers and then install the cage portion. The balls will then be trapped between the cuff and the cage.
This product is clear both inside of the bottle and once sprayed
on the skin. When sprayed on, it looks just like water and, as you rub it in, it turns to more of an oily consistency.
The more you rub it in, the more it begins to disappear;
however, it rubs into the skin much like a baking oil
(like canola oil), if you were to put it on your skin and try to rub it
in. wholesale vibrators
dildos I want to make sure that you know that you're not alone.
This does happen to other guys probably more than you or are aware of and very few people are ever
happy to be pressured for sex they don't want, don't feel ready for
or want in a balance with everything else, rather than to the exclusion of
everything else. I think it's also safe to say very few people are happy in an unhealthy relationship, which it sounds
like you might be in.Same goes with a partner pushing
parenting or babymaking. dildos
cheap dildos The flogger comes in a plastic clamshell case with a paper
insert. The insert does not cover up the entire front or back of the packaging, so it isn't discreet (regardless of what it has as its design).
Its designs are different shades of purple, matching the purple flogger, and it's very aesthetically pleasing.
In fact, if one partner really loves doing that thing, but the other really doesn't but does it out of
a feeling of obligation, it's not reciprocal at all, because one person is
doing something they enjoy from a place of feeling good while
the other is doing something they aren't into from a place of feeling bad.
I also don't think that any kind of sex whether
both of you are doing something you both want to do and enjoy doing involves anyone "taking" anything.
Sex with a partner is about making and sharing things together willingly and freely.Sometimes we'll each like doing the same things,
and will want to do those things, both for your partner's pleasure (and what we get
out of that) and for our own cheap dildos.

that the producers didn't show the agony of real sex addiction, but he spoke admiringly of Dr.

fleshlight toy Some studies have also shown some porn use to pose barriers to deeper intimacy within real life sexual
relationships, and some people do use porn as a weapon with
partners. Some people also feel that pornography, and a "pornified" culture, poses some very
real problems to society, women's equality and sound sexual ethos.
A lot of pornography does show and voice violence, usually towards women, and some
negative, unrealistic, unbalanced and unsound sexual
practices and dynamics.. fleshlight toy

Sometimes not. If you are not ready to talk to someone about
