[Photo via TheLanghamLondon. Palm Court in the Langham Hotel.]Search for the tag "afternoon tea" on Flickr and you'll pull up hundreds of photos. Scenes from slow afternoons filled with teapot and scones. Sweets and savories. Could there be anything more beautiful? A few recent finds on Flickr - there are some beautiful photos out there. Variety, inspiration. Makes me want to run out for a porcelain three-tier stand, line it with buttery golden scones, perfect finger sandwiches. Petit fours, little opera cakes, itty bitty fruit tarts. Don't forget the raspberry jam. Clotted cream. And the tea!

[Photo via jslander. Hong Kong Intercontinental.]Love the look of this tea stand. Sleek. Almost makes the classic tea stands look clunky.
[Photo via saddleworthshindigs]Ending on a sweet note. Hope everyone has a good week! ^-^

OMG these pictures are too pretty!!! LOVE the tea stand in the fourth picture <3
nice! after going to an afternoon tea, I wanted to get a stand for different noshes :)
The photographs inspire me to break out a tea afternoon on a lazy beautiful weekend afternoon. Where a patio exists.
Invite a few friends and nosh on snacks. I'd love to do that some day. I've already thought about doing a tapas-like meal some time soon. When weather is right. You should come!
