Coffee & Tea Accessories
A cup of coffee with a single biscuit, a pot of tea with the tea bag neatly parked on a little dish: that is Dutch "gezelligheid" at its simplest. In this category you will find coffee and tea accessories with a Dutch twist. Tea bag holders with tulips and windmills, teaspoons in a gift box, serving trays featuring Van Gogh and Vermeer, teapots, creamer sets and spoon holders. Small, affordable souvenirs for anyone who enjoys a proper tea or coffee break.
Dutch coffee and tea accessories: a taste of Holland at the table
The Dutch and tea go back a long way. In the early seventeenth century, ships of the Dutch East India Company (VOC) brought some of the first tea from Asia to Amsterdam, together with the Chinese porcelain that later inspired Delft Blue. Today the Dutch coffee break, the "koffie-uurtje", is as much a part of the culture as windmills and tulips. At the office, at the neighbours' or at a birthday party, there is always a cup being poured somewhere.
This collection celebrates that tradition. You will mainly find cheerful, practical souvenirs with Dutch themes: tulips, windmills, bicycles, canal houses, kissing couples and paintings by the Dutch Masters. Some pieces are decorated in a Delft Blue style, but most are bright and colourful. Looking for hand-painted or classic Delft Blue tableware? Then browse our Delft Blue category.
What will you find in this category?
Tea bag holders
Where do you put a used tea bag? On a tea bag holder, of course. Choose from tulip fields, windmills, Amsterdam canals, Van Gogh or playful designs with monkeys and dachshunds. Some holders double as a coaster.
Teaspoons in a gift box
Decorative spoons topped with a windmill, tulips, a bicycle, canal houses or a kissing couple. Each one comes in its own little box, making it a ready-to-give gift. A lovely souvenir to collect.
Serving trays
From small trays for a single cup to larger ones for the whole coffee table. Choose Delft Blue Dutch scenes and Kinderdijk, or famous paintings such as The Milkmaid, Girl with a Pearl Earring, The Night Watch, Sunflowers and Almond Blossom.
Teapots, cups and creamer sets
Teapots and tea-for-one sets, cups and saucers, espresso cups, mugs, milk jugs, sugar bowls and complete creamer sets. Including pieces from the cheerful Orange Tulip and Blue Fold ranges.
Spoon holders and little extras
Ceramic spoon holders for beside the hob or coffee machine, a trivet with a Delft Blue tile, a corkscrew shaped like a wooden clog and a tea towel. Small touches that make any kitchen feel a little more Dutch.
A small Dutch gift to go with a cuppa
Most accessories in this category are light, compact and affordable. That makes them ideal souvenirs to pack in your suitcase, a thank-you for your host or a little extra alongside a larger present.
