"Alice in Wonderland" Miniature Tea Service

Featured is an 8 piece Miniature Blue and White Tea Service adorned with Blue Periwinkles. This may have been the set which served the tea at the Mad Hatter's Tea-Party. "There was a table set out under a tree in front of the house, and the March Hare and the Hatter were having tea at it. A Dormouse was sitting between them, fast asleep, and the other two were using it as a cushion, resting their elbows on it, and talking over its head." The Platter is 5 5/8"; the rest of the set to scale.
