Description :

An elegant seven-piece early 20th-century hand-painted porcelain tea and serving assortment, decorated with rose-pink floral motifs, soft ivory and pastel grounds, and ornate gilt accents. The grouping includes confirmed Nippon porcelain pieces alongside unmarked but stylistically compatible companions, forming a cohesive and visually refined display.

Two pieces—the candy bowl with lid and the creamer—are clearly marked “Nippon – Hand Painted” with the green leaf mark, dating them to the pre-1921 Nippon export era. The remaining pieces are unmarked, but exhibit decorative techniques, gilding, and forms consistent with Nippon-era and Blush Ivory–style porcelain.
