What is it that thrills us so much about tiny versions of everyday things? A quick stroll through the Victoria & Albert Museum's online collection attests to this historical craze with hundreds of such objects from minuscule chairs to tiny portraits, with perhaps the most popular being the dolls house.
This morning we opened our very own little box of miniature tea cups and saucers by ceramicist Bethan Lloyd Worthington. Many of you will recognise and perhaps be collecting her work and this new limited edition Dusky Pink version of her popular Tea Service jewellery has just been launched today.
Either as bracelet or pinned to your favourite blazer, these charming, tiny pieces of a tea service are objects on which to contemplate our obsession with miniature worlds.
