[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] Grabbed this tea set today at a sale. It’s marked .800 and there is a single number on each piece. It seems like there...
Bought this neat little .800 vase for a little under melt. Was hoping I would be able to identify the maker once I got it. I have no idea though....

True!
The serrated rectangle was definitely used a “reasonable“ (not super common but I wouldn’t say rather uncommon either) amount in the last quarter...
