Description
This ceramic tea party set brings a proper unicorn tea party to the playroom, with every piece printed with prancing pink and orange unicorns, little rainbows, golden suns and scattered stars. There is a round teapot with its own lid, a lidded sugar bowl, a milk jug, and cups with matching saucers, all in white ceramic. The saucers are edged with a ring of colourful dots, and each one carries a unicorn's head at its centre. Everything packs into a pale pink paperboard carry case with a pink handle and a metal catch, printed all over with more unicorns, rainbows and stars.
As a toy for pretend play, it comes into its own at a teddy bears' picnic on the rug or a make-believe café set up on the playroom table. Pouring from the teapot, adding a pretend spoonful from the sugar bowl and passing the cups round gives a tea party all the ritual of the real thing, and laying out the matching pieces is half the fun. When playtime is over, each piece slots into its own compartment inside the case, the catch closes, and the whole set tidies away neatly or travels by the handle to a friend's house for another round.
The tea set pieces are ceramic, and the case is paperboard and paper with a metal handle and catch. The set measures 21.6cm long, 17cm wide and 7.4cm high and weighs 0.648KG, so it is easy to lift by the handle. Ceramic can chip if it is dropped, so the pieces are best handled gently; wipe them with a damp cloth and dry them, and keep the case dry, dusting it with a soft dry cloth. Because it comes in its own printed carry case, it makes a cheerful gift with nothing more to wrap, and we think any unicorn lover will be delighted to pour the first cup.
