Guaranteed Authentic and of the Period Stated. We have seen a lot of Chinese export through the years, and this is byfar one of the finest most elaborately gold gilded Kangxi (1662-1722)tea sets ever to pass through our hands. The porcelain quality is highly translucent which reflects the very pinnacle of Chinese porcelain production. This set is extremely rare in the condition seen , as t is virtually no wear to the enamels on the teapot and creamer, and t is little rubbing and wear to the enamels on the spoon rest and condiment tray. The saucers are in excellent condition and exhibit very little wear. This set was acquired from a Charleston, SC estate.
