For your consideration is this utterly fabulous antique Cup of Knowledge fortune telling tea cup and saucer, dating to approximately 1930. Manufactured by Jackson & Gosling's Grovenor China of England. Both the cup and saucer retain their original maker’s marks on the underside.
The interior of the cup is decorated with images of playing cards, allowing the user to combine the arts of cartomancy (fortune telling with cards) and tasseomancy (tea leaf reading). As the tea leaves settle within the cup, the surrounding playing card symbols provide additional layers of meaning and insight, creating a unique divination experience. These fascinating fortune telling cups blended two popular methods of fortune telling and were highly fashionable during the early 20th century.
This is a genuine antique example, not a modern reproduction. The cup and saucer are in excellent condition with no chips, cracks, or repairs noted. The transfer designs remain beautifully preserved, making this a wonderful addition to any tea cup collection, curiosity cabinet, Victorian décor display, or fortune telling collection.
You will receive the exact antique cup and saucer pictured. As with all authentic antiques, minor signs of age and manufacture may be present and are considered part of the piece’s history and charm. Please examine photos carefully as they are part of the description.

I haven’t found any blue tiger eye. I really liked until I bought some from the shop. It is very unique, intense with its color, and has a fantastic energy field to it. I absolutely love tumbles, and these small sizes are beautiful. I find when getting tumbles I am able to receive more intense color and high-quality in the stones since it is rare and expensive to find the bigger stones. These are wonderful to buy for yourself or a gift. This is a great piece to have. I absolutely adore these. My photography does not capture the look and give it justice, but it does match the sellers photos and is more beautiful in person.

I got two “baby“ Covellite in my order today. It is one of my favorite stones. I love these two smaller pieces. They feel great to hold, very smooth, yet show the blue and coppery colors in the light. Vibration is very high with the stone. The small stones are perfect for display in small bowls, to put on a pendant, or carry easily in your pocket. These are great for meditation.

This is a really cute fluoride tumble. The color is intense and it has rainbow flashes inside. I just want to stand in the light and move it around. The color is exquisite.
