Largest Cup of Tea in the World!

melinda teacup

I was asked by Help The Hospices, the national charity for the hospice movement, to make a giant teacup for their month-long fundraising campaign in June 2006 called “Tea at 3“. They are attempting to set a Guinness World Record for “The World’s Largest Cup of Tea”.

The teacup is coiled and fired with decal transfers of Help The Hospices sunflower logo. It is available for viewing at the main lobby of the head office at:

Hospice House
34-44 Britannia Street
London WC1X 9JG (map)
