# Milk Bottle Tea Sets 'Tea for Two' by Steve Gates is a Stackable Set for Couples By Marissa Brassfield | Published 2010-05-03 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tea-for-two-by-steve-gates References: [behance.net](http://www.behance.net/Gallery/Tea-for-Two/500279) & [stevegates.weebly](http://stevegates.weebly.com/index.html) 'Tea for Two' by Steve Gates is an adorable tea set that, when stacked, looks like a retro milk bottle. This [porcelain trio](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/corcelain) separates into [two cups and a saucer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cali) for cream or milk. Its modern, minimalist design would look great in any kitchen between uses--perhaps even as a piece of art to show off on a shelf.
