Description
I have been told ? that it was a special Shirayuki (meaning a clear white sake) set possibly from a Konishi family or company. Dated between 1870 and 1920,s (Taisho period or before.) Each piece has a handpainted dragon in red and gold with a gold mist sprayed over it. Also each piece is in perfect condition with hand painted kiln labels. I would just like to know if it is a "Kutani Kinyo" set as the same red and gold design is around the bottom of each piece as in Kinyo artifacts. Also appraisal value? I do have 3meg pictures if needed!
Thank you
