Tuesday Cuppa Tea, Shelley Harebell Teacup, English Bluebell Wood

Hello and welcome to Tuesday Cuppa Tea.

Today (which is Monday)I am also joining Sandi at Rose Chintz Cottage for her Celebrate the Splendor Of The Season Spring Tea. Also, the other tea related blog parties at the bottom.


I have chosen a Shelley China, England spring patterned cup and saucer in the Harebell pattern. The pattern just makes me think of spring and bluebell woods. Harebells are related to the bluebells famous for carpeting woodlands in the spring in England.

I love the delicate pattern. Harebells are a kind of wildflower found in the spring. The shape is the Chester shape which isn't seen very often. The cup and saucer was made between 1940-1966 when the pottery closed, although intermittantly, and not often after 1957. 


I found this video on YouTube of an Englsih bluebell wood...my photos are not as good as this:
