It’s been awhile since I shared with you about my Three Footed Tea Cup Collection. Not because I don’t want to, it’s just they are becoming so difficult to find! In fact, whenever I go thrifting ~ it’s always a fun hunt to see if I can even find one while I’m out these days! For Christmas my sweet and thoughtful momma gave me this NASCO Del Coronado Label from an estate of one of her friends parents.
I feel so honored that her friend trusted me with such a special heirloom from her family!
This beautiful Three Footed Tea Cup was added to my collection over the holidays and its beauty is incredible. The original foil sticker is still affixed to the bottom of both pieces, which tells me that it has only ever been on display.
Such a pretty floral design with bright hues of fuchsia, white, yellows and greens. Gold edges and a pretty design on the inside of the cup and on the saucer. Both the feet and the handle has very intricate details.
To see what else I am linking to this week – please check my “Cottage Links” label…xoxo, tracie

How pretty - tea would be extra-special from such a cup.
What a pretty teacup. I have seen a couple of 3 footed ones at the antique store in town. Very pricey. Have a great week.
I love it when you share your three-footed teacups with us. This one's a beauty, Tracie! Love the large flowers and bold colors.
This is really pretty and you are right - unusual is harder to find!
OMGosh.. I've never seen these before! Wow! This is truly a gift you will treasure forever :)

I love 3 footed tea cups. I gave one to a friend's mother for Christmas and she was thrilled. I still have a couple of my own. When I see one cheap, I buy it but they are hard to come by.
I just love this tea cup! The heavy gold gilding, and those gorgeous large blossoms! Beautiful!
Thanks so much for sharing!
Hugs,
