tea cups history
Sammeltasse?
Since moving to Germany I have started collecting these wonderful tea cups with matching saucers and plates from the second hand shops here. I ran into a lady yesterday that told me there was a wonderful history behind it, something about after the war, ladies would bring their own over to friends houses for coffee and such. I can not find anything on line about this history or tradition that she is talking about. Do any of you know anything about it? Much Peace
I am German. And I have seen my Oma and my mother having Sammeltassen in the Schrank.
Each one has a story of its own. Maybe you need to check with the library to get the true story behind it.
I know it is a TRADITION to have those in the Schrank!
