<p>[QUOTE="Dory64, post: 3116889, member: 17558"]I recently both a set of four of these cute retro demitasse cups and saucers at a charity shop for NZ $12. I've only ever seen such fine porcelain in Japanese tea sets. They are unmarked - does anyone have any ideas what they might be? They're so fine the circular pattern shows through to the inside. I can't find anything like them online.</p><p>From the same shop I also bought a funky set of six coffee cups and saucers for $9 - I did find something similar but not exactly the same, but they had Japan on the bottom, mine do not. Of course now I can't find that page, but had I not seen it, Japan wouldn't have entered my mind! Ideas anyone?</p><p>Sorry, just occurred to me that these are not antiques - moderators please delete if not allowed.</p><p><br /></p><p> [ATTACH]294066[/ATTACH][ATTACH]294067[/ATTACH][ATTACH]294068[/ATTACH][ATTACH]294069[/ATTACH][ATTACH]294070[/ATTACH][ATTACH]294071[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]294066[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]294067[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]294068[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]294069[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]294070[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]294071[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
