Finished already?
So that you all know, I have owned two candlestick holders for I don't remember how many years. Found them for a ridiculous price at the market in The Hague. Have painted them white and later green. Have even made a brief attempt at ancient gold. Gave up and recently decided I might go for a super glossy black.
But all that was before MCIdées, and before Réré.
God, she is so persuasive and made me agree on giving my version of the chandelier+teacups too. This is one of the fellows I'll work with:

I don't mind the green but I think it may a little too bright next to delicate china.
Still, one small detail: however hard I've looked around here (the only option would have been to glue my greatgrandma's coffee set...), however hard I've scratched my brains (thinking I would try vases, even stock or tea tin cans), I am still missing the cups....
The only potential version I came across on the web was Maria Liliegren's lovely cups:
But this would take some time to realize logistically speaking.
Oh well, can't wait to see yours Reg!
And, I'm afraid, you won again.

You can't give up this easily. You'll find the cups. Surely there must be a car boot sale somewhere in Texas!
PS: Your great grand-mother cups are lovely.
