Tea Set

[Mike Gibson]

Hi,

This my first post on this site.
In 2010 the national symposium here in the USA had an exhibition called The Teapot, which inspired me to make one. l decided on making a Brown Betty. This tea set is a collaboration with my wife Cynthia who does the pyrography. The inspiration for her burning was own Crown Staffordshire china. We completed the tea pot and l then it went on until we had a complete set This tea set is to scale and made from Magnolia and the platter is made from Ambrosia Maple.

Comments and critiques more than welcome. Mike
