Landscape Teacups



Yesterday we made a little trip to an incredible little mountain town called Casalanguida.
I bought those antique teacups last year and was waiting for a good moment to photograph them - this trip was perfect for it!


The teacups, from 19th century, are completely handpainted.



The little landscapes are amazing! 
Look at the details...
 
The colors, the shape... those teacups are really precious!


I hope you like it!

    1. I really love those teacups - the photos can´t show the real beauty. The landscapes are so tinny and well made!... but there is one that I love a little more! I put it at my Valentine´s Day tablescape. Is a french one, with special shape and also handpainted.

      Thanks for visiting, Ruthie!
