Vintage Pieces to Brighten Your Winter Tea Time

Although spring is approaching on the calendar, it's still the season when warm tea and sweet treats are dearly missed. Today, we've received a collection of French vintage items that will make your tea time richer and more elegant, so we'd like to introduce them all to you.

1. Three Sugar Tongs, Bearing the Pride of Artisanship

Today, we're introducing the unsung heroes that enhance the star of your table. The silver-plated tongs from the prestigious French brand "Ercuis" are exquisite pieces, featuring a sophisticated beauty reminiscent of Art Deco and eye-catching shell decorations at the tips. The elegance, once cherished on luxury liners and in first-class hotels, will splendidly adorn your table just by being placed there.

We have also uploaded classic tongs with traditional French "filet" decoration, although they bear no hallmarks.

2. A Gem-like Sparkle: Old Baccarat's "Diamant Carré"

The "Diamant Carré" from Baccarat is something every crystal lover would want to own at least once. This ravie, named "square diamond," sparkles astonishingly when it catches the light, captivating all who see it. Besides serving sweets, placing it on your dresser as a tray to rest your favorite jewelry might be a luxurious way to enjoy it, very much in the French style.

3. French Glass Bowls for Everyday Use

Lastly, we have glass bowls as "everyday tools" for daily use. The radial lines spreading from the dots on the base convey the plump, warm feel unique to pressed glass. They come in two sizes, small and large (9cm and 11cm). These are magical dishes that make your usual breakfast feel a little special just by serving yogurt or fruit in them.

All the items introduced here are vintage and antique pieces imbued with the history and scenery of French life.

We hope that by holding the weight of the silver and the sparkle of the crystal, you can imagine the atmosphere of France from that era. For detailed information on each product, please see the respective pages in our online shop.

May your everyday life shine with wonderful vintage pieces.
