Fill the cup with candy, nuts, chocolates or use it as a bud vase. A luxurious excuse for cupcakes, a tea party or a vintage-inspired wedding. Pile it high with holiday cookies or tiny favors & gifts. You'll never want to put it away... Unless you're giving it as an unexpected gift, say for a bridal or baby shower, perhaps.
Beautiful to admire, a pleasure to use...
This is a one-of-a-kind High Tea for Alice stand:
No. 28, Alice Favors Bubblegum
~*~ Our stands were featured on Preston Bailey's Entertaining blog. ~*~
Maybe it wasn't ladylike, but Alice loved bubblegum. She loved to sqeeuze a new piece before popping it into her mouth, she loved its fresh new flavor, she loved blowing bubbles. A few of her friends couldn't get over lollipops and jellybeans. But Alice absolutely favors bubblegum.
High Tea for Alice one-of-a-kind cake stands invite you to add a little vintage china to your life. Each European-born dish is painstakingly drilled by hand. We outfit each with new, gold-tone hardware made in the U.K. A striking centerpiece & instant heirloom. Pretty for wedding dessert bars, too.
{{{Use just two tiers for a mini stand. It's like having many stands all in one.}}}
We believe there's still majesty in presentation.
* Top: Vintage Regency fine bone china cup & saucer in soft pink with gold filigree detail from England, 5 1/2"
* Middle: Vintage Colclough fine bone china square lunch plate with gold fern leaf detail from England, 8 1/4"
* Bottom: Vintage highly collectible Spode Copeland fine china dinner plate in pink Blanche de Chine pattern with raised pink blossoms & branches from England, 10 1/2"
* Full height: about 15"
*Dinner plate has a scuff on the surface & light utensil markings, neither which are at all noticeable but we like to mention them for collectors.
This stand includes a removeable pink feather topper handcrafted from a vintage clip earring. We will soon be create decorative toppers as extras for all stands, but this little darling just called out for one!
~*~ Use as a boudoir jewelry stand or for beauty essentials on the vanity. * Mix & match pieces from several stands to create new designs. ~*~
About High Tea for Alice: Far from rummage sale cast-offs, the highly collectible pieces in our stands are individually scouted. None have chips, cracks, or crazing. Some are gently used vintage; all are immaculately lovely. It takes months to find just the right pieces for 1 stand. We will never duplicate your combination.
Includes care instructions & assembly tips.
~ Quick & easy to disassemble (but too beautiful to do so) ~
~ Stores conveniently away (but so useful you won't need to) ~
* Please note: "Love scuffs" (very tiny nicks) are an occasional but normal part our handmade process *only* around the plate's hole. These are not seen when assembled.
We are thrilled to recreate the long-standing tradition of high tea stands here in the U.S.
