My Nana's Tea Cups ♥

Yesterday, I had dinner at my Nana's house and she gave me an early house-warming present: four of her vintage tea cups! The first one was a gift she received at her wedding in 1938! They are all absolutely gorgeous, with beautiful intricate designs and 14K gold around the rims .... so very lovely!


... This last one is my personal favorite!
I've admired this cup since I was a little girl:

Thank you *so so* much Nana! You are the absolute sweetest!
