What is better than a tiny, baseball sized, ceramic tea pot that comes with a strainer for your loose tea?

Origin: Japan

“This stylish sugar and creamer set coordinates with the ‘Tea for Two’ Teapot set but can certainly compliment other china patterns. The porcelain sugar and creamer nestle together on a single saucer”

Set includes one creamer, one sugar, one saucer and one spoon.

Sugar and Creamer measure 3.7”h x 2.9”dia
Saucer measures 8.5”l x 4.8”w

The rough cork lid is a nice contrast to the smooth lines of this sugar/creamer set.

“Different and distinctive, it is Ego’s design that sets it apart from the rest. Designed by Stefan Lindfors, Ego brings a modern perspective to the international coffee culture: a cup suitable for all coffee specialties. The unique design of the handle helps keep the cup steady both in the hand and on its saucer. Ego is also an impressive dinner service that has large (25 and 31cm in diameter) multi-purpose plates. They can be used, for example, as service plates, for pasta, salads or serving. All parts are oven, dishwasher and microwave safe. 7 oz.”

Why pour one cup of tea when you can pour two? This delicate tea set has a 64 oz pot with a double spout, two 8 oz teacups and one saucer.

Thanks Greg!

Certain vintage patterns are reproduced, thankfully, due to their compatibility with modern aesthetic. This particular set is done in black and white, which usually lends itself to a more modern austere look, yet with a traditional flower design it seems to bridge the gap between past and present quite well.

For those of you that are hopeless at tablecloths and fancy napkin folding, you need not fear. Laser cut lines provide a guide for any sort of table as well as adding a bit of decoration. The napkins have guides for two different classical arrangements. You might have to save up for the set, but it would be worth it.

This cup bears resemblance to a cupcake, but I say that meaning it in a good way (for who doesn’t love cupcakes?). This cup is much more handy to have (than a cupcake) when handling hot or cold beverages. Would be a stand-out gift for someone that needs a new beverage-holder.

“Porcelain cup encased in easy to grip silicone sleeve. The silicone insulates the cup, keeping hot hot and cold cold, protects your hands from heat, and looks great too.”

The way the saucers act as a lid is a definite benefit, and I especially like the spoon/stirrers. I think this would be a nice gift for someone that entertains…

I first read about this last year in METROPOLIS magazine, and knew it would be the perfect holiday gift for my good friend who drinks loose tea quite often. A few weeks into the new year, my friend confided that it was their favorite gift and that they use it everyday! For under $25, I don’t think you could go wrong if you have any tea drinkers on your gift list.

“The ultimate infuser for tea enthusiasts features intuitive “scoop-slide-steep” functionality while it reflects the aesthetic of traditional loose tea service. Durable enough for industrial use, it has no breakable mechanisms and is constructed entirely of 304L stainless steel with holes small enough to infuse the finest of teas. The innovative design provides optimum flow for perfect steeping and incorporates a fill-line. The Teastick fits nicely into glasses and mugs and is ideal for a 10-14 oz perfect cup of tea.”
