Hello it's Lady Truly! I am an aspiring artist, designer, and costumer to bring back elegance to inspire others. I have been an tea enthusiast, collector, and historian for 10+ years. I have a beautiful collection of tea cups, accessories, fashion, tea and other varieties to share my knowledge to you. I am also a fashion student at the University of North Texas. Here are some things to expect by subscribing to my channel, tea tutorials, antique fashion history, sewing adventures and other lifestyle content!
The term Tranian - tˈreɪniən: Tranian is the phrase I created to refer to my brand/concept, which it is aesthetic or trend I am trying to promote. Named after the fictional era in, My Cups of Tea a novel, I have wrote and the designs I create are explored loosely based off Asian and Edwardian influence. The described aesthetic as a “leisurely a time in which Tranians gave themselves over to a life of elegance and hedonistic approach into the arts, fashion, and tea.”
I have been researching the marks on the bottom of my cup and saucer and can't find it no where. It's signed GW 1962 in blue ink. It's a solid floral print. Any feedback would be appreciated. Thank you!
The algorithm brings me to random weird places, and i like it! This is truly a lovely room arrangement and teaset! Did you sew your attire? Its gorgeous! I notice you havent uploaded in quite some time. I hope life is doing good for you and you find happiness and joy in what you make!
Hello! It really depends on the type of piece you are looking for. However, thrifting ang shopping online usually has good bargains. I hope this helps!
Yes! I have recently acquired six new 18th century tea bowls and I agree with that statement. They all have no marks but my Salopian tea bowl has a small blue "s". Thank you for sharing! Hopefully I'll do a video about that discussion.
think I bought a dud from a thrift store. It has what looks like Japanese Scribbles on the bottom of the tea pot, but it wasn’t hand-painted. It is transfer printed and the luster ware glaze looks a bit cheap. Do you know if there is a website that would check it out for me on the
You have some gorgeous pieces. I collect tea cups myself. I started when I was a kid. But then when I got older I REALLY began to start collecting tea cups.
It makes you want to put ruffles on everything doesn't it? Or it does until you realize how much weight the frothy things add to a garment. Maybe tulle.
I'd love a dress like any of these. But the hem may need to be detachable as it would get dirty very quickly. These ladies look so elegant. I really do love the look.
Indeed aren't they beautiful! They used skirt lifters to keep the dresses clean. I did not have one at the time. It was customary to lift your skirt on your left or right side and slightly back. Thank you so much! I appreciate your comment!
Occupied Japan means after the war. When companies such as JVC also known as Japanese Victor corporation were formed....I have a set of Noritake china. But I think it's the restaurant grade. Looks chip resistant.
Thank you for the informative video! I am new to teacup collecting so this was very helpful. I saw an Imari style tea set in a film and became obsessed. Your Imari cups are beautiful! May I ask who made them?
You are most welcome! It is such fun, and I started collecting Imari after watching Crimson Peak. My Imari pieces are made by Aynsley. I hope you will find more tea cups in the future!
@@TrulyTranian it is amazing what I found out based on your help. Mine is 1950s and sold to US military people. lol Your whole vibe is contagious. Stay fabulous.
Thank you so much! It means a lot to me! I hope to share my next project soon! I’m currently working on my senior collection so once it’s all over and I can work on my tea gown video! Yes, it creates a smoother hip curve to the body. Almost similar to the 1930s cut, as it also helps the 1899 style to look more prominent, which hugs the hips.
Aaaargh, sewing 1/4' on such a long seam, such a pain, I felt it in my bones... T.T Really beautiful petticoat, It's just so fluff and elegant, and you wear it so well! ^^ Congrats!!
