Welcome to Teatime Tuesday!
Today I want to show you my most interesting tea cup. It is a lovely soft aqua color and has really interesting details.
Here is the marking on the bottom of the teacup - I've tried to Google this but am not finding it. Any one familiar with this company?
The saucer is just a bit darker in color than the tea cup.
I think the details are really stunning -
It is very fine china - very thin...
Loveliness...
I bought this teacup in Vermont about 2 years ago. I don't use it often but I do use it. It's just lovely.
I am having such fun getting to know new friends that love tea and all things tea related as well.
Thanks for joining me today - don't forget to visit Sandi at Rose Chintz Cottage for Teatime Tuesday. And Lady Katherine's Tea Parlor.
I am also joining Trish at Lily-Rose Cottage for L.A.C.E.

I love the new look of the blog! Bright and cheerful! The tea cup is really pretty- it has great shape! Don't you just wonder who else has sipped out of it!? Thanks for the peek!
Nothing nicer than a cup of tea out of a beautiful cup.
I'm not a big tea-drinker, but I sure enjoy the beauty of fine tea cups & saucers! This is unusual, isn't it?
Such a pretty cup! It reminds me of a cameo!
Near as I can tell, your cup would date between 1907-1956. I believe the company is still in production today. I just Googled Rosenthal Bavaria China. you might try looking on Replacments.com - they have loads and loads of patterns, etc. Beautiful set!
The china is beautiful! I echo the previous comment. Your blog looks so cheery!
You forgot to mention that in honor of Tea Time Tuesday we are going to Pemberly Tea Room for lunch. Just a date with Mama and Daughter!
Oh, Deanna! That is a stunning cup! I love the lace-like design works on it - and such an unusual color! Gorgeous! Thanks for sharing!
Joy!

Wow! I love the aqua color and the lacy design .. it looks raised???!!!! So beautiful! Great find! Happy Tea Day!
Stunning is the exact word that I was going to use! Yes, I have seen other rosenthal pieces and they too had that creamy thick glaze look, and the raised detail. I LOVE it!

Hi Deanna,
Oh my, what a pretty teacup and in my favourite colour too! It is just beautiful with its lovely embossed design and shape. It does remind one of a cameo. I have never seen one like it. It truly is a delight to the eyes. I am so happy you have shared this with Tea Time. I am a new follower and it's very nice to 'meet' you. Have a delightful day.
Blessings,
Sandi
Like the blog look! Love the tea cup more though! That is a beautiful one.
Deanna, that set is absolutely beautiful!
I love the colour and the exquisite pattern!
It reminds me a lot of Wedgewood - which I also love.
You have some very lovely pieces in your collection :-)
Thank you for sharing this for LACE today.
Have a blessed week..Trish
