Tea Carts were a staple of the 1800's and early 1900's. They were used to display a hostesses finest china whilst serving tea and desserts or any number of delicacies. The art of tea drinking has certainly made a comeback with stores like Teavana popping up in every major shopping mall not to mention the health benefits of drinking tea. What better way to savor an afternoon cup of tea with a friend than with a fine antique tea cart, our best sterling silver and delicate porcelain tea service?
Below is one of our favorite tea carts featuring a beautiful hand painted scene of peacocks and cherry blossoms. Let's bring the tea cart back along with all of the finery, pomp and circumstance that make a memorable experience for our guests and bring some quiet elegance to our hectic lives. Hope you love this cart as much as we do! To see more lovely relics from the past, visit us at www.meadowlaneantiques.com.
