Fine bone china, possibly from Japan.

Description

This set of five cups, saucers and plates has been in our possession for 30 years and at least for 30 years before that in the possession of an aunt.

I know she travelled for business frequently to China and Japan and acquired amazing items over those times.

This china is fine and one sips from them with trepidation of ones lips breaking them. The photos tell it all, only one marking on the base of each piece.

It would be great to know their origin, age and if of value.

Thank you.
