I saw this teacup right away in the glass case by the register. When I was checking out, I asked to see it. It was all wrapped up with tape, but it looked in good condition.
It does not have any markings on the plate or cup, but it resembles the style of German or Bavarian china. And for $2.89, I could not pass this one up.
It was just too lovely not to add to my collection :-)Now please make yourself a cup of tea, and visit Kim's blog (Shabby, Pink and Pretty). You will enjoy visiting all the other lovely blogs who have signed up for Tea Things Tuesday.

Oh so very pretty!! 2.89 is a great deal as well. Here they would have had 5.99 at a min on it.
I am thinking I may have to do a Thrifty run soon.
Maybe Thursday..my treat to me.. suppose to have sunshine too!haha!

Your new find is just beautiful, Jocelyn! I love the soft pink roses, and that little spray of blue...so delicate and pretty. Don't you love those thrift stores? They've become my favorite place to shop, not only for the prices, but for the thrill of claiming something that has been discarded, and to give it a new home where it will be loved. I hope you enjoy sipping some delicious tea out of often!
Happy TTT!

Hi Jocelyn,
Your teacup is beautiful. I like the raised design on the cup and saucer. It looks so delicate. What a beautiful addition to your collection!

That was a great buy. It really has a sweet design on it. Enjoy. I love finding bargains like this :0)
I would have to agree with you Jocelyn. The teacup is just lovely and I don't think I could have let it behind either, especially with it being priced as low as it was. Don't you just love finding pretty treasures that cost only a few dollars? I know I do. That's what makes thrifing and antiquing so much fun.
That teacup is very pretty. When I first saw it I thought it matched a plate that I have from my Grandmother's wedding china (1928). It is very similar with the pretty roses but not exactly the same. It's a pretty piece at a pretty price!
