Tease out primarily for Turtle and for the Mad Hatters

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tea set

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'turtle and for the mad hatters' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'tease out primarily' is the wordplay.
'out primarily' becomes 't' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'tease'+'t'='TEA-SET'

'for' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for tea set that I've seen before include "Collections of cups, saucers etc for serving light meal" , "Set of crockery for serving light meal" , "tableware" , "China for small meal" , "hot drink service" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times.
