I´ve no news in which concerns my work, I´ve been operated a second time to remove the "support material" of my broken foot, and I hope to get well in a near future, and hope also to return to my studio as soon as possible.
Now I profit to invite all my Followers to join me at another cup of tea, and a slice of marble cake.
Tea cup from Limoges and marble cake
Porcelaine "Tête-à-Tête" tray, with a simple but lovely hand painted landscape
I "bought" this tea set more or less 20 years ago from an antique dealer to whom I restored some porcelain pieces, instead of receiving money from my work I preferred to buy this antique tea set from Limoges. The lids have a few damages but I never had time to repair them....
The mark at the bottom of the tea cup
And of course a miniature tea set near one of my cakes. As I can´t find any supplier of good white porcelain one of the experiences I would like to try some day is to enrich some of the miniature porcelain I have, i.e. I intend to profit the decoration made with decals of these serial pieces, and paint some more detail and a border using porcelain pigments, there´s one thing I don´t know, if these tiny pieces will stand high temperatures of 780º., as always I´ve so many ideas on my mind and so little time to accomplish them.....
I would like very much to find good quality white miniature porcelain to paint, do you know any supplier?
Ana, Your tea set is wonderful. There is a company called "Maryland China Company" That carries alot of blanks and supplies for china painters. Here is a link for a tea set.

Patty thank you so much for the link you sent me, but I forgot to mention that I needed a supplier for miniature porcelain, in which concerns scale 1/1 I have several pieces.

Your pictures are beautiful.
