I would appreciate any help in trying to identify and estimate the worth of this tea set. I do not know much about this set, but here's what I can tell you:
Description- Orange tea set with nine pieces. Tea pot with lid, sugar bowl with lid, creamer, 2 cups, and 4 saucers. The orange has an iridescence to it as well as the white areas such as inside the cups, and on the saucers. The tea pot, sugar bowl and creamer have an interesting octagonal shape.
Markings- The only marking that I can find on this set is the word GERMANY on the bottom of each piece, except for the cups. I cannot find any maker's mark.
Condition- I've checked this set over and I don't see any chips and only one crack on the handle of the sugar bowl/container. Some of the orange has rubbed off the saucers and lightly off some spots of the other items.
History- This tea set was given as a wedding gift to my great grandmother in 1928. I'm assuming that is was bought new in 1928, but I don't know for sure. I believe that at the time, they lived in or around Buffalo, NY, but again, not sure.
I'd love to hear from you if you have any information in regards to identifying this item. Thank you for your help in advanced!
