Description
a bright contrasting palette, raised decorations of applied slip called moriage--this is what www.askthecollector told a lady that had sent in th e exact same picture of my tea set and valued the teapot to be $150 and cup and saucer set $25--this was many years ago and that web site is closed now. My tea set has a browish background and I haven't found any on the internet that same color-nor has any sets had the same mark on the bottom.
Depending on the price I would like to sell it and of course can provide photos. It never was used and has original straw in teapot and has the crack in bottom of creamer
