Some rose teapots are available as "all-in-one's." The teapot above rests on a cup underneath.

These sets are both pretty and practical because the rose teapot and matching cup stack easily.

Stacking teapots and cups are convenient for those who are short on space. All-in-one's are less bulky because of the compact design as well as being rather unique!
