My great grandmother, grandmother and mother all collected rare and vintage tea cups.
They were passed down from generation to generation.
They were left to me recently, and as much as I cherish them, I'm just not into the whole teacup collecting thing, and I don't have the space to display them or keep them.
I hate to let such rare and beautiful items just sit in a cabinet collecting dust and going unappreciated, so I decided to sell them off.
I have about a half dozen pieces left (will include pics of others that I have for sale in separate listings too), but this listing is for a numbered rare teacup (#20 imprinted on bottom, along with the name Queen's Fine Bone China 1875).
I have been told that this was originally made in England.
I only have ONE of each tea cup style that you see.
All of my tea cups are free of cracks, breaks, chips, etc.
All are in great condition! This cup is made out of a gorgeous and vibrant royal Indigo Blue (hence the name of this style) with cream, lilac and light salmon colored flowers & leaves on it with 24 karat gold accents.
Beyond the first 6 photos that show the particular teacup being sold here for $49, the rest of the pictures that you see show some of the other rare, collectible teacup/saucer sets that I also currently still have available for sale as well.
