Antique NAGOYA SHOFU NIPPON Japan Tea Set Pot Creamer Cups Saucer FLYING SWANS
NAGOYA SHOFU NIPPON TEA SET. A nice set, over 100 years old. Golden gilding has some light moriage. There are some light signs of use over this time period. Tea Pot, Creamer, and Sugar Bowl are a heavier porcelain, whereas the Cups and Saucers are thinner. All pieces have some individual characteristics, bumps, glazing marks, different tones and such. This being said, other than a chipped saucer, these pieces are crack free! Tea Pot measures 8 1/2 across spout to handle. A Cup is 4 1/2 across including the handle. Some pieces have minor rub/wear marks here and there. There are only 4 Saucers and one of those has an edge chip. The Saucer in the lower right corner shows this in it's 7pm position. Overall the set displays very well. What you see you will receive. Please message me with your questions.
