IN PERSON THIS IS A VERY PRIMITIVE LOOKING TEA SET THAT HAS BEEN IN MY FAMILY FOR 100 PLUS YEARS. MY MOTHER PASSED @ 94 YEARS OLD AND IT BELONGED TO HER GRAND MOTHER. THE CUPS ARE PAPER THIN AND HELD UP TO A LIGHT SOURCE YOU CAN ALMOST SEE THROUGH THEM. THERE IS A SUGAR BOWL AND TEA POT AND SOME OF THE CUPS ARE RED AND GOLD, ALL WITH MATCHING SAUCERS.
I DO NOT KNOW WHAT I HAVE HERE AND IF IT HAS GREAT VALUE OR JUST AN OLD TEA SET.
IS IT CHINESE OR JAPANESE?
ANY COMMENTS WOULD BE GRATELY APPRECIATED AND I THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR INTEREST.
