Background Information: It is fitting that Art Deco and the hit song 'Tea for Two', both made their debut in 1925. From the start, tea ware and Deco style were destined to enjoy a fruitful marriage. The years between the wars are recalled as a true golden age of tea drinking. This was the heyday of Lyons Corner Shops, where an oasis of comfort - red plush seating and chandeliers - was on hand for the price of a cuppa, and where ladies or working girls could meet (or brief encounters be enacted!) in surroundings above reproach. It was also the heyday of the dansant or (tea dance) where bright young things could tango or quickstep unchaperoned in the richly appointed Palm Courts and tearooms of hotels and department stores. At home tea made the rounds upstairs and down - from bedroom tray to kitchen table to drawing room trolley, from nursery to dining room to garden. For the most part, it was tea grown in India and Ceylon - established at breakfast and all-day favourites - with the China varieties mainly making their appearance along with the three-tiered cake stand and buttered scones in the afternoon - Delicious!! ! ********************************************************************************** Multi Purchases: We offer competitive multi purchase postal discounts to all of our customers, worldwide - these discounts are often significant and will save you considerably on postal charges on multi purchases (ie more than one item).
