Teacup Thursday: Green Duchess

-
This is a repost of a Irish teacup that I shared last year! I thought this teacup was too cute note to share it again!! This is a Copeland Grosvenor called "Green Duchess". Isn't the little Madam Alexander Doll cute! My mom got this little Irish Lassie when she was a young girl and then gave her to me!
~Miss Spenser


Hills as green as emeralds
Cover the countryside
Lakes as blue as sapphires-
And Ireland's special pride
And rivers that shine like silver
Make Ireland look so fair-
But the friendliness of her people
Is the richest treasure there.

    Your teapot is very pretty and I just love your Irish doll. I collect dolls but I do not have an Irish one yet. Better start hunting!...Christine
