Chintz for Tea Time


Hello China Lovers,

Today I would like to share my very small Chintz collection.



The newest being this Welbeck 1995 Royal Winton teapot.


Do you know where I found it?  Yes, you guessed it ...... Goodwill.


I fell in love with the pretty colours and roses. 










It will have a special home with some favourite teapot friends.


My dear friend Dawn recently gifted me with this precious Johnson Brother's coffee pot.

  


Such lovely pastel tones.







I have had this vintage "Rosalynde" James Kent teacup as long as I can remember.


I believe I got it at a Sunday Flea Market in Queen's Park Arenex when I was 16.

  My Mother, Sister and I would go after church every Sunday. 

That would mean that I have had it for nearly 44 years!!!  Yikes!


Like transferware, Chintz china seems to blend nicely together too.





This pretty  Colclough is a similar shape to the James Kent.












Some time ago I was pleased to find this Royal Winton Cream and sugar at Salvation Army for $2.99.






Thank you for stopping by for 
Chintz for Tea Time!



See you next week!

Karen

  2. You have the most amazing collection of teapots! The chintz one is no exception. I like its bold shape with the chintz pattern. I really like the chintz pieces you have. Some patterns can get too busy, but yours have nice visible floral features. As always, your Goodwill finds blow me away.

  3. Hi Karen,
    Your newest Chintz find is so pretty! As are all of your teapots! I do not have any Chintz, only the JB Rose Chintz.
    Have a great day!

  10. Your yellow chintz teapot is another great score at the Goodwill! I saw a similar Colclough teacup at the Salvation Army last spring and now I'm kicking myself for not getting it.

  12. Karen:
    This is the bargain of a lifetime. That teapot was sold through Victoria Magazine for like $175.00. There is one at an antique mall in Ft Collins in a case and the lady has $175.00 on it. I have looked at it for about 3 years and she hasn't sold it yet. Sometimes she has it on sale for $150.00 but that nuts. Yours is the same one! Congratulations. See, you broken the Roses and Ivy one but this more than makes up for that! So glad you shared!

  13. You style the prettiest, most romantic tea times. And I can't believe the deals you find!! That chintz teapot is lovely, and so is the beautiful coffee pot your friend gave you. And that RW cream and sugar was a great deal too! (Referring back to your previous post, yes, I love to use my Friendly Village dishes for Thanksgiving!)
