How adorable is the 'Storm in a Tea cup' by John Lumbus? This collection of teacups includes ceramic teacups with Oriental designs and a saucer, and adds a fun storytelling twist to spice things up.
On one side of the cup, there is a handle that, when turned, animates a cute scene of a ship in the ocean. There are even little clouds with lightning bolts. Although you wouldn't want to drink out of this particular teacup, it's well worth inclusion in your collection. The 'Storm in a Tea cup' by John Lumbus debuts at Milan Design Week 2010.
