Thank you to Martha and Terri for hosting TEACUP TUESDAY! Of course I DO enjoy Tuesdays . . . and LOVE Teacups so what a perfect combination!
My featured teacup is an Eggshell Nautilus PRISCILLA pattern by the Homer Laughlin China Company. I inherited a small collection from my Grandma Lena about 40 years ago and it brings back fond memories of staying over at her house with my 1 year younger brother Bob!
Over the years I've completed a service for 12 with all the side pieces including a teapot, coffee pot, water pitcher, gravy boat, creamer, sugar etc.

The creamy highly glazed porcelain has gold rims and small sprays of flowers and the larger pieces have bigger bouquets! The teacup bottoms have the HOUSEHOLD INSTITUTE Priscilla mark in 24k gold and the saucer has Eggshell Nautilus USA with a shell motif and Homer Laughlin HL marking in green.This pattern was manufactured from the 1930's - 50's and I think its the sweetest!

Thanks so much for visiting my blog on tea cup Tuesday. I really know I am going to enjoy this new adventure. Your tea set is so beautiful. I think during the 30's they made the most lovely things - everything takes on a sweetness. Should you find out what my tiny set is called I would love to know. Have a lovely rest of the week.

ReplyDeleteGosh, I hope I said that all correctly. Let me know if that works. I am still learning all this. I will keep my fingers crossed!
Your Homer Laughlin is beautiful. For some reason I am always drawn to Homer Laughlin when I see it in an antique store, its funny I will always pick up a dish and it is always Homer L.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your beautiful dishes and thank you for stopping by.
