This is my first Tea Cup Tuesday post. I decided to go ahead with one, though my cup is sorely lacking a matching saucer. Hope that's okay, {grin}. This lil' pretty is currently my very favorite. That being said, I don't know a lot about tea cups. I suppose it speaks beauty and softness and girlyness and grace to me, and so... I love it.
I love the laurel wreath~banner shape of the flowers and the gold around the base and rim. I most recently tried Tazo Passion tea in this cup, paired with homemade coffee cake, delicious.
The fancy handle makes me giddy. The photo doesn't show, but it has a touch of a gold stripe also.
The stamp is very off-centered and you can see it says, Royal Stuart Spencer Stevenson. Call me crazy, but I think the crown is almost as pretty as the rest of the cup, hee hee.

I think your saucer-less cup is a lovely one! The roses are beautiful, and I love the crown on the bottom too!
The shape is one of my favorites as well.
Thank you so much for joining in Tea Cup Tuesday! We love coming to visit. I hope we see you again next week.
Hugs,

Such a nice little cup. Perhaps one day you will find a saucer that matches the pattern or at least the colours of the cup. But for now, I'm sure it is nice to drink out of even without it's saucer :)

Hi Holly,
I agree with the others, that is a very pretty teacup, it looks very delicate.
