From Tea with Grandma to Finding Treasures – Antique and Vintage China, Crystal, and Pottery with a Story
My story begins at my grandmother’s kitchen table, where she’d brew fresh, local leaves—lemongrass with milk was my favorite—and we’d spend hours chatting about life. Those cups of tea weren’t just warm and comforting; they were moments of connection and family history that shaped who I am today.
Over the years, my fascination with tea grew even stronger. Binge-watching “Downton Abbey” inspired me to explore vintage teacups and antique markets, mixing and matching plates for cozy get-togethers. Friends loved the charming ambiance, and I found real joy in sharing these pieces—each one with its own bit of history. Eventually, I realized my passion could become more than just a hobby.
That’s how this Etsy shop came to life. It started with tea sets, but soon I expanded to fine china, luxury glassware, artisan pottery, and decorative collectibles. I love hunting for heirloom-quality treasures—anything that carries a sense of story and craftsmanship. This new chapter in my life is about embracing the freedom to follow my heart, keep learning, meet fellow collectors, and celebrate artistry from around the world. Did you know there are Australians interested in Navajo art? I didn't until now!
I’m reminded of those early tea sessions with my grandmother every time I put up a new treasure. Whether you’re here for a dainty vintage teacup or a statement crystal vase, I hope you feel the same warmth and wonder that sparked my journey all those years ago. Thank you for stopping by and sharing in this new chapter with me!
