Teacup Tuesday


Here is my pretty little teacup from Japan. It has a Japan marking on the bottom. That is all the markings I find. It is very delicate and thin. I hate to use this one. I'm so scared I'm going to chip it. I love the tiny flowers.
The two kitschy kitties are my latest finds. Are they not the cutest???? I love 'em. I collect little kitschy animal figures too. Since I just found them this weekend on our driving /antiquing outing, I had to show them off. I just love the silly grin. The one in the cup looks like she is taking a bath....rubbing her tummy and  neck...so cute. I nabbed them for a couple of bucks. At an antique store, that is not a bad price! The cup I have had forever. I'm not sure why my interest in these kitschy animals have come back. Weird. I saw a lovely teacup for sale but just could not make myself buy it. I went for the cats instead.....so cheap.

    That is a really pretty cup! I have one like it too, and it is also, very thin. I have never used it because it is so delicate.
    Thank you for sharing. Your kitties are adorable!
    Hugs,

    So cute! We had Siamese cats growing up. Awesome little vignette...it reminds me of the kitties in "Lady and the Tramp"...
    ...we are Siamese if you please
