The Brooklyn Teacup Holiday Gift Guide 2022 Tree
It took making a gift guide to realize just how many beautiful and unique products we offer at The Brooklyn Teacup. The 12 pieces we chose, from vintage teacups to upcycled tiered trays made from timeless dinnerware patterns, are just a sampling of the unique gems we know will make the perfect gift for that hard-to-shop-for person on your list.
For ease of browsing, we divided our guide into gifts related to Dining & Entertaining, with serving pieces and tabletop items, and Home & Garden, with decorative and display gifts that can also be used around the home (and even outside, too)! The numbers above correspond with the numbers below (they're not out of order, we promise).
