Description

Hi there. We're having trouble identifying this tea set. There are no markings whatsoever. It appears to be hand-painted. It has a teapot, sugar bowl, cups and saucers (one saucer missing) made of very thin china. The main color is teal, with pink and green borders surrounding scenes of a river with trees and grass huts, with a mountain (Fuji?) in the background.

Any help identifying this set would be appreciated! We work for a thrift store run by people with disabilities, and all proceeds go toward their association. I have no idea what to ask for as a price for this set!

History This set was donated to a charity thrift store from a family who was cleaning out their mother's house. It came in with a box of various collector's plates and glassware. No marks at all to help us identify the age or make!
