All that's left of lost tea set (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

estate

'all that's left' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'lost tea set' is the wordplay.
'lost' indicates anagramming the letters.
'tea'+'set'='teaset'
'teaset' is an anagram of 'ESTATE'.

'of' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for estate that I've seen before include "Houses - car" , "Plantation" , "All of one's assets and liabilities" , "Property with large grounds" , "Property left at death" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
