Description: A traditional and a new take on collectible toys: This tea party set is perfectly sized for a special 18-inch doll and two of her friends! Set the table with original Ohio Art tin dishes, a pressed glass water pitcher (new), metal toy tumblers from the Paris flea market, and dainty metal spoons and forks from Germany. Finishing touches: a bouquet of paper posies, tablecloth that’s an old Dennison crêpe paper napkin, and shiny pink dress-up tiaras made of original German die-cut Dresden. This is a unique twist on the old sets sold by the finest French toy stores, like Au Nain Bleu on the Rue St. Roch in Paris. A treat for a responsible young doll owner or a clever display for a collector. A word about the craftsmanship of this set: After years of collecting vintage toy dishes, old Dennison crêpe paper party goods, and various items from the storied flea markets of Paris, I decided to make them available in a unique way. I trimmed the box, or « coffret,» with old wallpaper prints and vintage florist’s foil. I used photos of the old French sets as a guide. Make it yours, and enjoy this set as much as I have!!! (Please note: The original French set in the final photo is not included in this listing. Just pictured for historical context.)
