The iridescent shine & gray-blue color on this sweet 2-tiered jewelry stand reminds me of a misty English morning sky, while walking through a bright, lush garden. The pearly finish, often called "lustreware," adds intrigue to this little display stand made of a vintage footed cup & saucer set from Japan.
In a petite, handmade version of our classic tea stands, this little beauty might become a jewelry showplace, business card holder, desk organizer or a mini tea-time centerpiece for candy, cookies or other small treats. Fill the cup with candy, mints or nuts.
Ideal for small spaces, add extra jewelry storage in a Victorian bathroom or a romantic boudoir. Admire rings, bracelets or watches inside the teacup or hang earrings on its rim. Color is a bit more blue than it shows in the photos. Very lovely with any scheme...
Beautiful to admire, a pleasure to use...
This is a one-of-a-kind High Tea for Alice stand:
No. 219, Alice Feels Misty
Alice was listening to Auntie's records on a rainy day while Mother went shopping. She loved the feel of the cardboard sleeves & reading the back while the records played. "What does, 'I get Misty just holding your hand,' mean?" Alice asked. "You'll find out one day, Alice," Auntie replied. "If you're very lucky, you'll understand every word of those songs, my dear."
