Think I'll put the kettle on and get my ugly big pot down off the shelf. This going to be a five cup of tea moment.

I would definitely break those. They're really cool looking, though.

But what's the thing on the left for?

That's a creamer.

 

[Murrmurr]

That's a creamer.

I thought the thing on the right is a creamer.

ROFL!

My apologies, Mur, I see I'm having problems with distinguishing left from right today.

That's the matching sugar bowl. The orange peacock feather or coloured leaf is the lid.

You know, Mur, the more I look at the image I see the thingy you were inquiring about on the left being a spoon holder.

I think the creamer is on the left (front), and in the middle is the sugar bowl with fancy-schmancy spoon.

Your thoughts?

LOL!

I think the thing with the fancy-schmancy spoon in it is the tea cup. I'm scoring one for myself for that.

Yeah, the creamer is front right. We definitely both scored a point on that one.

I think the thing on the far left is either a spoon holder (which would be another point for you) or a place to plop your wet teabag onto, or maybe both.

OR maybe you put the dry teabag on that thing and then either hold it over the teacup or set it on the teacup while you pour hot water through it. I'm gonna call that a tentative point for me.

Fun game, huh?

The bottom part looks too thin to be a sugar bowl, like it wouldn't hold more than 2 or 3 spoonfuls. I think it's to pour the hot water through; a tea strainer. I think that bc it has a little handle on it, like to hold it over a cup.

Yep, that makes a lot more sense

OMG so cute

I love looking at these unique pieces. I have a small collection of loose tea holders all were given to me as gifts. The 2 in the upper right were used for saccharin tablets to sweeten beverages. That poison was very popular back in the 50s. Both had little tongs so you could easily drop the tablets into your tea.
The other picture is for loose tea and I still use it from time to time,
