Description from the seller
Japanese Porcelain Tea Service for Eight — Geisha and Wisteria Decoration
An elegant Japanese porcelain service for eight, distinguished by its delicate, thin-walled construction and colourful decoration. Figures in traditional Japanese dress appear among cascading wisteria blossoms, with pink, yellow and green details against an ivory-white background.
Rich iron-red rims, handles and spout frame the decoration and give the ensemble a striking, harmonious appearance. The lightness of the porcelain adds to its refined character.
The set comprises 19 objects:
• 8 cups
• 8 matching saucers
• 1 pot with lid
• 1 sugar bowl with lid
• 1 milk jug
The two lids are included in addition to the 19 objects.
