Tea for Two


In today's post, I'm going to feature sugar bowl and creamer sets, tea cups, etc.  These things are great to pull out for holiday entertaining.  Did you know that a sugar dish lid alone can more than double the value of the dish?  Take care of your lids!  The above picture is one of my favorite patterns, "Bubble."  It was made by Hocking Glass Company from 1934-1965.  Similar patterns include "American Pioneer" by Liberty Works, "Moonstone" by Hocking, "Pebble Optic" by Federal Glass, and a couple more.  But more about that in another post.


"Sharon" by Federal Glass, produced 1935-1939





This wacky looking piece is the sugar dish from the "Tearoom" pattern by Indiana Glass Company, made from 1929-1931.


Jadite/Jade-ite in the "Jane Ray" pattern by Fire King.  I really like this pattern and I'd like to collect some more of it.


Isn't this a great color?  It's called Ultramarine.  This is from the "Doric and Pansy" set by Jeannette, made 1937-1938.



Tea Canister by Jeannette.  In Delphite blue.
