Noble Poppy Bone China Tea Set

I bought this tea set last weekend in the store and I must say that the photo online doesn't do it justice. The yellow isn't a fluorescent yellow like the photo here - it is more of a warm yellow. For me it was love at first sight - my first thought was that it looked very imperial, like something a king/emperor would use because of the color, gold trims and flower detail. The sales clerk at the store also told me that the gold trim is 14k gold. I don't know if I believe her and it doesn't say so on the site, but nonetheless, it's beautiful. The teacups are just the right size and the curves are very well-designed. Using this set brings the whole tea experience to the next level.

Although I did not buy it, I wasn't very pleased. On the website, the color is a beautiful light yellow. Seeing it in person was another thing. It is a very tacky fluorescent yellow. Not at all the same color as they picture it.

My husband bought this for me for our first anniversary. It's a wonderful gift, and very thoughtful because I'm home a lot more working on my PHD and I like to wind down with an exquisite cup of tea.
The bone china is delicate and light, which is telling of it's quality. The yellow, which I originally thought may have been tacky is decadent and bright and very alluring.
It stands out in our china cabinet and is just a treat to use.

Yellow is my fav color and this is just a beautiful bright yellow! It would be even better if we could get 8" salad plates to match so that there is a complete service for tea time. I came to the web site looking to see if they were available, but no luck :( And what makes this set even better it was a gift from my mother!

We like it very much, it is simply beautiful! It has the best color, and very unique. Inner artwork in the cups looks great and indeed very noble.

We entertain with luncheon or afternoon teas.
This set is just beautiful. It would be even better if we could get 8" salad plates to match so that there is a complete service for tea time. It is stunning as a table setting.
Thanks Teavana for offering the unusual.

I absolutely LOVE this set. I recieved this as a gift and not only is it beautiful, it brightens my morning when I drink my tea from it.
As always though, I accidently cracked one of my cups by adding water that was too hot :( But I love it none the less!! <3
