Description

My mother received this from either her brother who was in occupied Japan after the war or from a Japanese neighbor.  She has passed and I can't get any more information than that.  There are 5 tea cups and a teapot.  There is also a large bowl for rice with 4 rice spoons/scoops.  The holder may be for chopsticks, but I'm not sure.  Any information would be greatly appreciated!
