ANTIQUE NIPPON TEA SET, 18 PC, HEAVY GOLD, HAND PTD

Description: Hi Friends. This is an EXTREMELY beautiful set! And condition is AWESOME! I wish I could take more photos to show you. This auction is for a teapot & lid, a sugar bowl & lid, a creamer, a round footed bowl, and an elongated bowl. The teapot, creamer and sugar are a nice melon shape. I believe the set is about 100 years old, it has an older mark on the bottom. Each piece is marked. When I first saw the set I gave it the name "Ribbons & Roses" because it's just got beautiful roses and buds all over, intertwined with gold ribbons that are thick and have moriage dots all over. Outlines on flowers are in thick gold too. The teapot is about 8 1/4" from spout to handle. It stands about 5" tall. It has 3 feet underneath. It's clean inside, may not have been used. The round bowl is about 9 1/2" across and it stands about 3" tall. It has 3 feet underneath it. It has no chips or cracks, but in the bottom middle there are a few faint yellow lines, see photo. The sugar bowl is about 6 1/2" across and stands about 4 1/2" tall. It has 3 feet also. It has no damage. The creamer is about 5" across and it stands about 3 1/4" at the spout. It has 3 feet also. It has no damage. The oval bowl is about 12 1/4" across and 6" wide and stands about 1 3/4" tall. It has a flat base. It has no damage. You won't be disappointed by this set. I've never found one with the extra bowls to match. Wish there were cups... but alas... ADDENDUM!: I uncovered the rest of the set - 5 cups & 6 saucers that match!!! Not all cups are perfect, but I could never throw any away since they're gorgeous, even repaired, and it's amazing so many survived! They're soooo delicate! (One cup has a hairline crack, and one might have a repair.) I usually ship within one day of receiving payment. I expect to be paid within 2 days of auction's close. 4857
