Alentejo-Inspired Tea Set (teapot, cup & saucer)

This charming set includes a teapot, teacup, and saucer, all hand-painted with naïve-style illustrations inspired by the Portuguese Alentejo countryside — little white houses, clouds, and trees in vivid cobalt blue. Each piece is slightly different, marked by hand-painted variations and signs of time, including paint smudges and fine visible cracks.

These spontaneous, folksy decorations are reminiscent of popular regional ceramics from the 1970s–80s, bringing a warm, rustic charm to the table or shelf. A sweet tribute to imperfection and memory.
