When it’s time to crook the pinky finger and pop on the pearls the occasion will call for correct placement of the cups and saucers on the table. Etiquette says the cup and saucer shall sit on the right side at the top of the table setting with the handle of the cup facing the three o’clock position.

Always the perfect gift for tea lovers, choose:

1. Iconic or special edition T2 Tea For One sets if you want a gorgeous gift for someone special on Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Christmas, birthday or any occasion.
2. Tea For Two sets for a looming anniversary, engagement, Valentine’s Day or a wedding.

If you’re a member of the T2 Tea Society we’ll include complementary gift wrapping but if not, wrap the teacup and saucer individually in plenty of tissue paper before gift-wrapping together.

Pop into your local T2 store or shop online for the hardest decision EVER (they’re ALL beautiful!)
