Antique Dish Set

By stephanib, 13 September, 2017
Description

We found some interesting dishes in my grandmothers things and believe she bought them in Belize but are not certain since they traveled frequently. I have searched the internet and cannot find anything like it. Hopefully you can help.  They may not be worth anything but I would still like to find out more about it since it has peaked my curiosity.  There is a set of 12 cups and saucers (originally 14 but 2 are cracked)  the cup fits into an indention to one side of the plate. There is also a tea pot, and what looks to be creamer and sugar.   Some of the cups say "Made in Japan" and some have Asian writing so I asked a friend of mine from Japan what it said and she said told me it says "Made in China"  We got a good laugh out of that.Thank you for any information you can provide,

Re: Antique Dish Set

I've just been told that this is a snack plate and cup set.  Possibly made of porcelain. 

Would still love to learn more.
