The World of Glass: Time For Tea

Ron Helsby with some of his colourful collection of teapots.

Until 16 March 2013

There’s nothing quite so English as Afternoon Tea. It all started back in the 1840s and you can relive the history of this much-loved ritual in Time for Tea at The World of Glass.
Curated by Hannah Longworth, many of the items on display come from the museum’s own Pilkington Glass Collection, the St Helens Council Collection and the personal collection of The World of Glass’s Executive Director Ron Helsby.
