Okay, so I stumbled upon this “fb rogers tea set” thing online and got curious. I’m a sucker for vintage stuff, and tea sets? Don’t even get me started. So, I decided to dig in and see what I could find and maybe, just maybe, add a cool piece to my collection.

The Hunt Begins

First things first, I hit up the usual suspects – you know, the big online marketplaces. I typed in “fb rogers tea set” and… a bunch of stuff popped up. Some looked promising, others, not so much. It was a real mixed bag of teacups, saucers, teapots, and sugar bowls, all claiming to be “fb rogers.”

I spent a good hour just scrolling through listings, comparing pictures, and reading descriptions. I quickly realized I needed to be careful. Some sellers were clearly overpricing, and others were… well, let’s just say their photos weren’t exactly high-definition. Authenticity was a big concern.

Narrowing Down the Search

I decided to get a little more specific. I started looking for markings. From what little I could gather online, real F.B. Rogers pieces often have a specific stamp or marking on the bottom. So, I focused on listings that showed clear pictures of the base of the items.

• I looked for the “F.B. Rogers” name, of course.
• Some pieces also had a number, which I figured might be a pattern number or something.
• I tried to avoid listings that were blurry or didn’t show the bottom at all. Those felt sketchy.

Getting My Hands Dirty (Well, Not Literally)

After more searching, I found a few promising leads. I messaged a couple of sellers, asking for more pictures and details. One seller was super helpful, sending me close-ups of the markings and even giving me a little history of the set. It was supposedly from her grandmother, which added a nice touch.

Another seller, not so much. They were vague and took forever to respond. I decided to pass on that one. It’s always better to be safe than sorry, especially when you’re buying something that’s supposed to be vintage and potentially valuable.

The Final Decision

Finally, I settled on a set that looked authentic, was reasonably priced, and came from a seller who seemed trustworthy. It was a pretty simple silver-plated set – a teapot, sugar bowl, and creamer. Not super fancy, but it had a nice, classic look that I liked.

I paid for this tea set and waiting for the parcel to arrive.

It’s here

The tea set is finally here. It’s really *’s very shiny and doesn’t have many scratches.I think I’ll use it to entertain guests next time.

So, that’s my little adventure with the “fb rogers tea set.” It was a fun little hunt, and I learned a bit about vintage silverware along the way. I ended up to display my new tea set. Not bad for a random internet find!
