This is another beautiful item which had belonged to my grandmother. Though unmarked, I feel almost certain that this eggshell porcelain cup & saucer were made in Japan and probably date to the 1930's or earlier.

Vibrant pink and purple hand~painted flowers are enhanced by a rich frame of cobalt blue with gold accents...quite captivating!

The cup is approximately 3 3/4" in diameter at the rim and 2" in height, while the saucer is 5 5/8" in diameter...

This stunning piece belonged to my grandmother and I have always admired its outstanding beauty.

I believe that this may be a master berry bowl and would date this piece to around the 1930's. For those of you familiar with Joan Van Patten's markings for Nippon porcelain, this bowl basically bears her #17 backstamp with the exception that it states "Made In Japan" instead of "Nippon", dating the bowl after the Nippon era...

This lovely, hand~painted chocolate set probably dates to around the 40's or 50's and is hallmarked "Shofu Made In Japan" as shown.

The set consists of seven pieces...the pot and lid, which measure approximately 9 1/4" in height with the lid seated, and 6 handled cups which are approximately 2 3/4" in height. All of the pieces are in VERY good condition, only a couple of cups with a bit of roughness on the rims.

This lovely little Dragonware nappy was produced by Fleetwood China and is marked "Made in Occupied Japan", as shown, which dates it from sometime between 1945 and 1952.

Duodecagonal (12~sided) in shape, this piece features the wonderful moriage dragon in the center and is done in the more traditional colors of dragonware. Minute beading along the edge and a small handle complete the presentation...

Peach colored lustreware finish creates a framework for the hand painted floral design showcased on this lovely plate.

Produced by Noritake and hallmarked in red with the Morimura "M in Wreath", I would guess that this plate dates to the 30's or 40's when lustreware was quite popular.

Two gold decorated handles complete the look of this cake or service plate. It measures 9 3/4" from handle to handle and is in excellent vintage condition.
