About Us
Finding inspiration from our past...
Since the sale of the tea room earlier this year, Jon and I have been working on our "next thing". It turned out that hundreds of pieces of vintage Irish and British china needed to find new homes. We are preparing to help with this by creating our brick and mortar home at Riverdale Farms in Avon.
Our Story
A new place to find things TEA!
Nann Thomson, originator and former owner of Take Tea, a British Style Tea Room in Avon, CT has created a small, carefully curated collection of items to take home to your home and enjoy. Working by her side, as he did at the tea room, is Jon Shaw.
Both mom and son love to travel, and have taken tea in Ireland and England (and Canada and the U.S). Although they won't be serving tea at CuppaCT they
understand that friends love the beauty (and fun) of a tea service and hope to send you
home with the accoutrements that will make having a Cuppa at your home memorable.
