Adderley Cape Breton Island Tartan Teacup/Saucer Set plus Leprechaun Cracker Serving Dish

Scottish and Irish pride come alive during tea time with this emerald and just plain fun duo.

From Adderley, c.1970 and in white bone china with gold trim, this Cape Breton Island teacup displays a flowing green/grey tartan design, accented with pink flowers. A map of the Nova Scotia island, beloved by famed resident, the inventor Alexander Graham Bell,  is set in the center.

In keeping with green, this shamrock serving dish will perfectly hold pretzels, crackers, or candy. How about burying the adorable little leprechaun (the smiling head will stick out) in a pot o' green guacamole?

Teacups are like small pieces of jewelry-they tell a story, they are displayed, shown off with pride, and prized from one generation to another. Like jewelry the time comes when such beauties are not so 'minty" young.  And yet these lovely items have lasted so long for a reason. 

They are still in their prime. Seasoned with time-honored character.
