Thirteen pieces that set a proper table. The centerpiece is a white lidded tureen painted with blue flowers, with its own ladle resting in it, and around it go small white bowls carrying the same blue flower, stacked the way real ones are.

Then the drinks, which is where Maileg shows off: two slim bottles under gold foil carrying a full printed Lemonade label with red berries on it, one clear and one filled pale yellow, a tall green bottle carrying a complete Perry label with a pear painted on it and the Maileg signature beneath, two faceted tumblers, and two stemmed glasses no taller than a mouse's hand. The clear pieces are moulded rather than blown, and they still catch the light.

Every piece is Mouse size and stores in a round blue tin printed in a repeating paisley with the words Soup Set on the front, so the whole dinner service lives in one object on a shelf.

Lay it out on the Mouse Kitchen Counter, or follow it with the Mouse Waffle Set in the morning.
