Would love to have Tea cups and Saucers

SilverBride · October 2020

We have teapots, but what are we supposed to pour the tea into? I would love to see some nice tea cup and saucer sets introduced. I just put a small tea room in my Antiquity house, but mugs are so big, and just look out of place. I hope this will be considered.

The typical teacups with handle and saucers wasn't invented until 18th century and became popular in the 19th.

Teacups or small drinking cups without handles has been around for ages though and it would be nice with some smaller ones for that. Both in singles and a group, maybe even on a tray with a teapot.

Luckily this is Nirn and not Earth. Small teacups with handles would be nice along with saucers. I am still waiting on pipes from Clockwork City, but I am not holding my breath.

True, but I still think some typical 18th century porcelain teacups with saucers would look odd. They could just make them less "18th century Europe" and it can work.

I would be fine with small cups without handles if they were sitting on a saucer. A saucer would also be nice for holding a pastry or small bit of cheese and/or fruit. You just can't set a proper table for tea with huge plates and mugs.

We already have teapots, so I think this is a reasonable request.

Those look nice. What did you use? I use those little breads for pastry, too, but never found a small plate for an individual serving.

Are you seriously equating Tamrial to real life? Explain Dwarven technology to me. When was that invented?

Time Travel is in this world and we don't even have that now, a teacup wouldn't be out of place.

🙄. Yes. We also have a lot of other things in real life that doesn't exist in Elder Scrolls, because it's logical and makes sense. You don't see any cars around do you? Or bicyles, or a billion other things.

I'd love some teacups. As long as they fit Elder Scrolls. That's all I'm saying. Like some small handleless cups that matches the Dres Teapot would be lovely. I say without handle because that fits the dunmer look.

Or a elaborate metal tea set with a tray that's similar to all the goblets Summerset have etc. With some subtle steam coming from them of course to show that it's warm. Using incense and similar usually looks too much.

I think any cup and saucer in any of the furnishing styles would fit. I imagine a Khakiit set in red with a small crescent moon or sun on them. Or a pure white ceramic Alinor set, for example.
