Whether you’re hosting a bridal shower or your daughter wants to upgrade from her plastic tea cups for the “real” kind, porcelain tea cup sets will enchant your partygoers and add some refined elegance to your afternoon. The best tea cup sets also make fun gifts, whether for the bride-to-be, your mother, your niece or just for a friend who is a regular tea drinker. These sets are designed to contain the steaming hot tea easily, and they’re big enough to accommodate some milk and sugar, in addition to the tea.
These sets often come with a set of cups and matching saucers, so if any spills happen, they’re likely to be contained by the saucer. The tea sets all have some kind of traditional floral pattern. Two of our picks vary the color or the pattern of the tea cups and saucers, so each person gets a different color cup. If you’re throwing a bigger party, you can get multiple sets to account for all of your guests. One of our picks, which is more understated, has more than just the cups and saucers. It includes a full set, including a teapot and sugar bowl. Just make sure that you have your pinky out while you’re sipping on that tea.
