This is so helpful, thank you! I've realised how much I didn't know!
Or had backwards...
Unfortunately a tea drinking etiquette is almost lost in US. People prefer coffee from a paper cup. Everything is simplified and people forgot how to enjoy a decent drink.Thank you for keeping the amazing tradition.
my pet peeve is tea drunk out of a steel mug/Stanley Cups and also out of large mugs in general.
I’m visiting London during Coronation Week and will be having an Afternoon Tea at the Dorchester Hotel, one of my lifelong dreams has been not only to see London but to have an Afternoon Tea in a posh hotel, I’m so looking forward to it, loved this video!
The napkin should be picked up, unfolded and placed on the lap, but not above the table level. A large dinner napkin is folded in half, with the fold facing the body, while the luncheon napkin should be opened completely. Do not wipe your mouth with the napkin; instead, blot it.
Your napkin should remain on your lap during the meal. If you need to leave the table temporarily, place your napkin in your chair and push your chair back under the table - this signals to the wait staff that you will be returning to the table. When you return to your seat, return the napkin to your lap. At the end of the meal, loosely place the napkin to the left of the plate. Do not refold it - this signals to the wait staff that you have finished your meal. And you NEVER plop the cream onto the scone, you put it on your plate!
Please Let me ask you a question. With modern etiquette, a napkin by the collar is not allowed. But this was allowed before. You don't know when and why this happened? How to place a napkin on your lap with the edge facing towards you or away from you?! Thank you in advance for your answer. Sorry for my bad English
I vehemently object to placing your napkin in your chair for ANY reason. That is unsanitary and disgusting. People SIT on chairs with their smelly rumps and then we are to place our napkins there and blot our mouths with it? That is a ridiculous rule that needs to STOP!
@@TheSouthIsHot You are absolutely right, 200%
@@antonf9696 Thank you. It's a very good example of how rules can often be completely arbitrary and senseless, especially rules of etiquette!
Im a gent, but truly enjoyed this, presentation it is nice to see someone with the correct information on the web! Keep up the good work! your fan Count Kody
Thank you so much!☺
We may not comment often but we’re watching too because refinement is not a gender specific issue.
Thank you.
Indeed, my lady absolutely loves when I make tea for her and it has kinda become 'a thing' So much so that here I am learning proper techniques and procedure.
non del tutto corrette
I just came across your channel. Thank you for your video. Very pleasant. My great-grandmother was from Devon. When she came to the States in 1906, she brought with her etiquette about tea time. She would always pour our tea for us. Wonderful memories. ❤
Lovely video. Just a note though that when placing the knife and fork onto the plate, the cutting edge of the knife should be facing inwards, not outwards as shown. This is done for safety reasons (so the cutting edge is not facing the fingers of the person picking up the used plate) and as a historical tradition of not having a sharp "weapon" facing towards a guest.
Wow!!!! The amount of stuff I learned in these ten mins is unparalleled! Please keep up the momentum and do more etiquette videos just like this one so it’s easier for us struggling ladies to mimic in real life. Thank you so so so so much!
Thank you so much! I certainly will🥰
Do you have one for dinner?
You are just lovely and this is so helpful, as I am staying in London at The Savoy this coming May 2023, and I plan on doing at least two teas - one afternoon tea and one high tea. Thank you so much for this helpful video. 😊
Wonderful this is what we were taught as social graces growing up ❤😊
The Langham! I went there with my little graddaughter for her 9th birthday. The pianist played Happy Birthday to Lola and everyone clappped. A memorable day. Wonderful attentive staff.
Brilliant Video. Every lady (and gent) should take an etiquette class. These videos are very helpful, thank you.
I've dreamed of having afternoon tea at an elegant place in London. Thank you for this video. It would help me feel at ease when I finally go.
Thank you so much this has been a big help for my upcoming Afternoon Tea🎉
I’m definitely taking notes and you look so beautiful as always. 😘
Black Excellence is ALL I see. Bravo ma belle. I love Afternoon tea
Brilliant. Clear. Thanx!!
In 8th grade i was lucky to attend a ladies etiquette class at school. This video very much reminds me of that. You're a very lovely and elegant lady! Thanks for sharing
Wonderful explanation! So helpful for those of us not accustomed to formal afternoon tea.
Etiquette classes always helped me when dining in public.
Thank you for this tutorial… I’m attending my first Lady’s afternoon tea party
Lovely video
Lol London is such a gem, just recently left there 6days ago. They have one of the best if not the best restaurants, best hotels, best tour/sightseeing great for vacation too. Definitely would recommend.👍
You think so right? …. I haven’t been to London tho but my family and I plan on spending our next vacation there next year.
@@jaluriaja6294 Mine wasn’t even a planned vacation, I made profits from an investment so I decided to take myself out, toured around London and dined at some of their top restaurants such as The Araki, and Dinner by Heston to name a few. I really enjoyed myself there, you should definitely try it too.
@@jaluriaja6294 London is such an easy place to visit if you speak english, and it is not a lot of different from what people from Japan or the US might be used to. It is one of the most tourist friendly city in Europe
@@steffan683 That’s great to hear glad you enjoyed you visit, you mentioned about an investments, pls could you tell me more about that?
@@saanvi848 Oh yeah so I’ve been working with a broker for about a year now, she owns a trading platform where I copy her trades from and I’ve been making profits. I make 5% of my daily investments, that’s better than my salary lol
Vivienne, you look gorgeous.
Thank you so much💕
Loved it!
Dear Vivienne, I'm not a lady, but I certainly appreciate your wonderful and classy videos. I believe the we men could do with advice on etiquette and elegance too. Will you make videos for men in the future? Louis from Switzerland.
From USA and I enjoyed this very much. You have a lovely voice and an elegant way.👍🏽
This video was so useful! I was given an invitation to an afternoon tea and i didn't know anything about afternoon tea etiquette. This video helped me a lot to understand what to know before going to the invitation. Thank you!
I'm about to turn 25 and decided to be more elegant. Better late than never.
This video is amazing and helpful. Cheers from Angola
What a refined lady ... truly elegant! A couple of translations for Americans: "Crockery" - china, tea serving; "cutlery" - flatware, silverware, utensils.
We also say cutlery.
A new subscriber,you are God's sent to us women.good job vivi
Aww thank you so much♥
Thank you. I saw in someone else's elegance video the robocop way you showed not to do with the silverware. I have learned something. I also did not know about putting the napkin on my seat if I would like to keep my plate and I need to get up. That one I may have just forgotten. I liked knowing about the proper way to serve and consume the tea and the scones and desserts. I got a lot out of this and I appreciate all of your videos.
Thank you so much for this video. I will be starting my tea party business for elegant princesses and queens soon in the Caribbean. Would love to get more videos. ❤
Am glad this video popped up on my phone at the right when am about to have a coffee date at a high end hotel..... Thanks alot Woman of elegance
Love this so much!
Thank you so much. It was a real pleasure to learn so much about afternoon tea etiquette. I have three friends which share regular afternoon teas with me, and I shall remember everything you taught us today. Additionally, it was wonderful to hear a well modulated voice, and see such ladylike mannerisms. So lacking these days unfortunately.
Goodness, this is wonderful, I will be on a cruise in December and will be having afternoon tea. You are so elegant. :)
This was probably the best vid ive seen on the subject. Thanks for the info
I’m actually going to a ladies tea next week. Thank you.
Thank you! I will be visiting England for the first time at the end of the summer and I am so looking forward to having a proper English afternoon tea.
I love the video and I love the way you speak
Beautiful table! Just lovely🌺
Such a beautiful image of the setting and the lovely woman! Thank you for the information.

Great message. Lifting of the cup depends on the height of the table.
Classy and beautiful
Thank you so much for this educational video.
Elegant lady ✨ a love the arrangement of the table thanks alot keep me learning ☕🍩🍪
Your videos are so classy and beautifully done.
Hi there. What a wonderfully educating video! Thank you so much! I hope you don't mind a very small critique with regards to stirring(6:10). I was taught that at no time(especially stirring)should there be any clinking, clanking, tapping or banging of the spoon against the tea cup! High Tea is not a noisy affair. Was this correct or was I misinformed? Regardless, thanks again for sharing knowledge!
Very nice ma'am.
Wow! Thanks for the video
Thank you. Important etiquette.
Thanks so much....I love a good Afternoon Tea 🫖💭
Wonderful!
Thanks 4 this as I have my first official afternoon tea this weekend 🥪🍵🍰
