Celestial Seasoning Teapot and Teacups was made in 1999-2000 from Celestial Seasoning tins. Celestial Seasoning tins were a promotional item that often came inside boxes of tea, whereas larger tin cans were used to sell tea bags as gift items — they are difficult to find.
Teapot Dimensions: 8.25”H (on stand) x 11.50" W (spout to handle)
Tea Cup Dimensions: 2.38”H (on stand) x 5.5”W (spout to handle)
The tea cups featured in this set were the first I ever made. It took about 75 hours to figure out the technical solutions required for their fabrication. Once I unlocked the method of making the tea cups I made more cups for tea pots.
