    Hey everyone,

    I am having trouble identifying where this tea set came from due to the lack of marks. These pictures do not do justice to the tea set (data size restriction hurts). The coloring is extremely vibrant and the gold color actually reflects when light hits it. Any thoughts on the origin, time frame, and value?

    I am not an avid antiquer but could use some help from you all! Thanks in advance! tea.jpg tea4.jpg tea2.jpg tea3.jpg

    Hi,
    Looks very typical for Japanese or Nippon from the turn of the century 1890s to the 1920s.

    Okay great! Thanks for the help! After searching Nippon it looks very similar. I assume this era isn't very rare meaning not much value.

    Hi Diggingin - actually cobalt Nippon can do quite well. Condition looks iffy on your set, though. Missing sugar lid, broken teapot finial will hurt value considerably.
