This sugar bowl is marked with the "Rising Sun" Nippon mark that dates it between 1890 - 1921. It is hand painted with beautiful pink cottage roses, leaves. Around the rim of the lid there is a light coloring of yellow. It measures 3" tall w/lid and 5"across including handles. This sugar is in good condition with no chips, cracks or repairs. There is some very, very minor wear but nothing significant considering the age. It is very fine translucent porcelain that light will penetrate. It is back-stamped with "Hand-painted" and the Nippon Mark. The colors are very vivid. This is from my own collection and is very beautiful indeed.
