Collection of five beautiful tea cups and matching saucers. These really pretty used pieces will be beautiful to add to your collection or use in your own personal tea party. All are unmarked, and may be either English bone china or fine Japanese china (our guess). All have been used and show very minor signs of wear with light scratches from washing, and very light utensil marks. Three-footed gold/floral cup with matching saucer (photos 2 and 3). Heavy gold gilt and floral design, with irridescent color on body of cup. No chips, no cracks. Beautiful display piece, but a used piece and therefore not in brand new condition. Both cup and saucer show minor signs of wear, with some very light utensil marks and some minor wearing to gold gilt on cup handle and rim of saucer. Some wear to bottom rim of saucer due to years of stacking and some minor discoloration (may just need a good cleaning). Approx 2-3/4" high. Cup is 3-3/4" diameter, saucer is 5-5/8" diameter. Three-footed black/green/floral cup with matching saucer (photos 4 and 5) . Pretty geometric motif of black on gold floral and yellow/green floral. No major flaws, but this piece does show normal wear from use with some light utensil marks/scratches inside cup, and some minor wearing to gold gilt on cup handle, rim and saucer rim. Some wear to bottom rim of saucer due to years of stacking and some minor discoloration. Approx 2-3/4" high. Cup is 3-7/8" diameter, saucer is 6" diameter. Beautiful display piece, but a used piece and therefore not in brand new condition. Stunning red/gold "portrait" cup with matching saucer (photos 6 and 7). Exceptional red and gold floral, with cameo portrait design of a man and a woman in a garden. Beautiful display piece--but a used piece and therefore not in brand new condition. Some minor wear to gold gilt in several spots along rim of both cup and saucer, some very light and barely noticeable utensil marks. Three rough spots/pinprick fleabites on rim of cup that are not noticeable and can only be determined by running finger around rim. Some wear to bottom rim of saucer due to years of stacking. Approx. 3" high. Cup is 3-5/8" diameter, saucer is 5-1/2" diameter. Lovely green/gold "portrait" cup with matching saucer (photos 8 and 9). Pretty green and gold floral, with cameo portrait design of a man and a woman in a garden (matches red/gold cup described above). Beautiful display piece--but a used piece and therefore not in brand new condition. Some minor wear to gold gilt in several spots along rim of both cup and saucer, some very light and barely noticeable utensil marks. Flaw in glaze, slightly larger than pinprick size, on outside of cup near top rim. Some wear to bottom rim of saucer due to years of stacking. Approx. 3" high. Cup is 3-5/8" diameter, saucer is 5-1/2" diameter. White cup with red rose with matching saucer (photos 10 and 11). White cup with gold rim and red rose design. A used piece and therefore not in brand new condition. Some minor wear to gold gilt in several spots along rim of both cup and saucer, some very light and barely noticeable utensil marks. Some slight discoloration on inside top rim of cup. Some wear to bottom rim of saucer due to years of stacking. Approx. 2-3/4" high. Cup is 3-3/4" diameter, saucer is 5-3/4" diameter.
