Re: Antique Japanese tea set
These are what's sometimes called "Egg shell" porcelain, after their light weight and thinness. Sets like this date from the turn of the 19th century, but were made in very large numbers for the export market, so values tend to be very modest for them. The marking translates roughly to "Made In Japan"
