I was looking at their website at the Tea Sets, but I do not know anything about the company. Just checking with my Farmgirl Friends, to see if they have had good luck with this company.

Thanks for any information.

Hi Bonnie~
I have been ordering from Victorian Trading Co. for years and have never been disappointed. I have there red and white tea set with the birds, it is wonderful and worth the money. They have classy unique items I feel and they do not sell junk. Give them a try you will not be disappointed I promise.
Hugs,
Debbie

Debbie and Tammy,
Thank you very much for the infomation.

Debbie,
Your Red and white with the birds, is what I was looking into. Are your plates the ones that the teacup sit in? So you can add warm tea in the cups and they will not break?

Thanks again friends.

Bonnie, yes I have the plates that the teacup sit in and they are so nice. They are sturdy china and can handle the hot water without cracking. You will love the set.
Hugs,
Debbie

Me, too! I love Victorian Trading Company! I have the most beautiful hat from them, my carved wooden calendar holder (and the annual calendar), some mosaic candleholders, stamps, stationery...and other stuff, too. Their gift wrapping service is great, too. My Mom sent my whole Christmas from them a few years ago, and everything was wrapped in the most beautiful paper I have ever seen. I've re-used it for wrapping other gifts as well as in different papercrafting projects. But I'm going to let you in on a little secret, too. If you look up some of their items on ebay, you can get them for MUCH better prices. I always check to compare their price vs. ebay before buying. Doing so has saved me a lot of money over the years. I bought their big wicker trunk of assorted stationery, cards and stickers for less than half the price on ebay... You just have to watch, that's all. :) Either way, the girls are right - they are a wonderful company with quality goods. I love them! 'Hope this helps a little bit, too! - Nini

I have always had good luck with them. If it's tea sets you might try www.stashtea.com as they have some nice sets as well.

Blessings, Sheri

If you're ever in the KC Metro area, they have an outlet store & a Tea Room/storefront location. LOVE Victorian Trading Co.

Count me in as a customer of theirs! I have ordered from them before and I love them! Their catalogs are fun to sit with a cup of tea and read, too!

I have never ordered from them, but love going shopping at their store in KC! When their catalog was free (ages ago!) I used to always order it and dream of all the things I wanted. (I was only like 10! lol haha) I'm not 35 and still love their stuff!

Congratulations on your first order, Bonnie! Can't wait to hear how you like your tea set!

I just came across this $10 off a $49 purchase coupon for Victorian Trading, and thought I'd share. It expires March 31st:

Happy shopping, farmgirls!
