4 pc. set - CONTINENTAL and silvercoinc. engraved on bottom of coffee pot. Also has the word CHROMIUM. The percolator coffee pot and the tea pot have plastic brown handles.
The table is in fair condition I would say. The top of the table is pretty severly cracked and/or peeling but the wood is good and the drawer is functional. My basic question is one of value. Also, would refinishing the piece decrease or increase value if any? Any feedback is much appreciated, thanks!
There is a label on the back of bottom unit. Piece is from Herringhausen, Germany, Firma: Mobel - Gamber & Co. There is another word that I cannot read Huilig___rabstrafe. I've tired finding info on web but I cannot find anything. The label also has 25/27 on it so I think it was made then. It is missing the sliding doors in upper cabinet portion. I would like to restore item and have no idea what kind of door it should have.
I have photos but I can't figure out how to shrink them. They will not upload so I think they are too big.
Tea set. Ardalt Lenwile china #6208, occupied Japan. Have 9 cups and saucers. Saucers are combination cup/snack (I don't know the official terminology) - They are shaped like an "8," approx. 7" from top to bottom of "8," with one end smaller diameter with a indentation for the tea cup, the other end larger diameter.
Sorry - I can't upload a picture because of its size. The cake lift has a handle the shape of an exclamation mark; open;with an internal design of five styalised leaves on the left, one below the other, each smaller than the one above and pointing downwards to the right. On the right of the leaves, facing them, from the top, is what looks like the top part of an inverted question mark, which ends in a series of six reducing 'bead.
Immediately below where the handle meets the body are two lines, followed by a further two lines, 2 cm below - then becoming the 'blade'.
