I received my tea cup today from Gramadinah and it's just perfect! It's an oriental demitasse cup with saucer in beautiful shades of pink, blue and gold. It will fit perfectly in my cabinet where I keep my vintage photo collection and other vintage stuff.

Thanks so much Diana! I love it!

I was worried it would break so the extra packing. It was one of my Great Great Aunts I believe it is from a general store in San Fransico from the late 1920. Glad you like it.

Oh wow, Diana, I'm honored to have something that was owned by one of your ancestors! You did an amazing job packing it...it's in perfect condition.

Thanks so much again!

Rene' (Prosserfarmgirl) your teacup is on it's way! I sent it priority, with tracking, AND insurance.... Should be there in a couple days. Sorry it's taken so long for you! Hope you like it! It was a lot of fun putting it all together.

Yes! That's so true. I think reading everyone's reply about what they received is equally fun. It is so generous of Gramadinah to share a family heirloom. It is a tea cup and saucer to cherish Kim!
