Laura: Thanks for the inquiry. "Florida" by Grindley is a very lovely pattern. Tea sets are not easily found as a complete unit, and you may have better luck in buying it piece by piece. Certainly the sugar bowl with lid and the creamer is much easier to find than the teapot. I have collected a pattern for over thirty years, and still have yet to find a teapot that I felt that I could afford in desirable condition. However, I haven't given up hope, nor should you. One never knows what will turn up, especially at our yearly international conventions where there are ample opportunities to find long sought after pieces of flow blue and mulberry china. You'll find more flow blue and mulberry china at our conventions than you'll find at 100 antique shows or malls; china sold by professional, ethical dealers in this field of antique china. This year's convention will be held in Indianapolis, Indiana. As usual, it promises to be a wonderful experience for flow blue and mulberry china collectors! If you've not attended a convention before, you may be overwhelmed by the vastness, variety, and quality of china offered for sale, as well as the number of tremendous people you will meet and will, hopefully, develop some meaningful, lifetime friendships. Hope to see you in Indy..........Respectfully, William Miller
