I like this one when I want to see the leaves.

It is a press by High Wave. A double walled mug you can press and then drink from.

Is that a unicorn or a horse lamp in the background?

One of the many vintage horse pottery lamps I have all over the house. I have one pottery vase that is a unicorn. I think it is McCoy. Hull, It is Hullnot McCoy.

My little sister Mary has recently gotten into something call Polish pottery. My mom and I and sometimes one or both sisters usually go up to Charlotte on day right before xmas for crazy packed last minute holiday shopping. So Mary was all excited to stop off in Rock Hill at this little place known for its Polish pottery and I’m thinking yeah, yeah, okay cause my tastes and hers aren’t always similar. But I found some patterns lovely and I got these two.

They are very small and work well for multiple steep oolong, green, and white teas.

Hi guys thought I’d resurrect this old thread to post my favorite tea cups as a right-of-passage, since I’ve only just joined the community as a poster.

Cup on the left is one in a set of six, and on the right we have my Puerh cup. Both are porcelain-lined yixing clay cups.

I am a newbie, too, and I’ll join ya….
I don’t have specifically one, I have eight. They are jumbo mugs by Fiestaware. I have red, green, turquoise (2), orange, yellow, navy, and peacock. I use an infuser basket. They are like the green one in the pic. Today I am using the orange one… :)

Lately I’d been favouring my dalek mug (like so: http://www.thinkgeek.com/homeoffice/mugs/e5cf/), mostly because my handmade red mug can be awkward to hold at times. But last week saw the tragic end to my second favourite piece of Doctor Who memorabilia when the handle snapped off.

I’m thinking of taking a heavy-duty metal file to what’s left of the handle and filing it down flat, then painting it with black nailpolish or something. Handleless Doctor Who mug/cup!
