Wherever I go, I’m always on the lookout for teacups. I am also quite fond of the color red! Transferware has become a passion. I love the romance of Transferware. It is no surprise then that I’m fond of collecting Red Transferware.

Collecting Red Transferware

I am quite fond of Transferware and Chintz…

Strolling along the path at The Country Living Fair I was almost overwhelmed with all of the wonderful items displayed. Almost. I spent most of the first day thoroughly enjoying my sister’s and daughters’ reactions. When you love something so much it is such a joy to see it reflected in another. Then I spotted these sweet beauties! I have also been able to collect a full set of lovely Transferware from the estate of a dear friend.

The Romance of the Pattern

English Transferware was initially created for the every day woman to use in a rainbow of color – yellow being the most rare. I found this at The Country Living Fair.

The Details

Teacup and Saucer

There’s so much to love in collecting Transferware – them many colors and romantic images. One of the things I love the most – is using my collection.

Finding Ways to Display

I love stacking the teacups atop their saucers or lying three or four on their sides with the handles woven among them.
