It’s funny how you can sometimes tell what a person’s like by mulling over their possessions.
These teacups belonged to my husband’s grandmother. She died before I got the chance to meet her… But I’m guessing from these cups that she was a bit frilly, feminine, and believed in using pretty things – not just letting them gather dust in a cabinet somewhere.
I have no idea what brand these cups are – I’ve tried Googling the little Eskay/Eskary name on the bottom of the cups and saucers, but no luck… So I’m choosing to believe that they’re terribly rare and old and will get me millions if I ever try to sell them on eBay.
But until that day comes, I’ll mostly be drinking some yummy Earl Grey tea from them…

Prettiness!
The elusive name... Any guesses?

Maybe it’s Essary, or that could just be me misreading things because I’m not wearing my glasses right now :0
