<p>[QUOTE="dgbjwc, post: 309474, member: 308"]I agree with cluttered - Japanese sometime around the Depression era. The color scheme (blue, red, green on white) is pretty common for Japanese dishes. The handles probably were hand formed as labor was very cheap. It's possible that only the teapot was marked and if marked only read "JAPAN." Finding the pot will be more a matter of luck than anything else. These are one of those items that poured into the US from Japan in almost unlimited quantities. I used to be able to pick up shoe boxes of these at auction but not so much lately. Just as well, there was little market for them.</p><p>Don[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
