1950s Beach Tea Set


Here are some photos of the lovely tea set that I picked up from Mandy's stall at the Buddha Market. Her stall is next to mine and it's the sort of vintage stall that I love. It is a real rummage around stall with a wide variety of treasures. Every time I visit she has new goodies!


I love the images on the saucers with the lady riding a donkey on the beach! The detail on the teapot is great too with images on both the back and the front. This was made in the 1950s as part of the 'Riviera' design by Crown Devon Fieldings. What a fantastic find!

  1. You're so lucky, I just love these sets. I was on my way to the Buddha Market on Wednesday and I know it sound ridiculous and it has never happened to me before but the place was heaving with people and after about 45 mins I gave up trying to park. I'll have to try again next week.
