For the enthusiast or collector of unique Asian antique porcelain: a beautiful 8-piece set consisting of 4 cups and 4 matching saucers.
This is the well-known and sought-after Japanese export porcelain in the Batavia Brown / Capuchin style, made around the year 1900.
Features & Details:
• Unique contrast: The outside of the cups and the underside of the saucers feature a deep, glossy brown glaze.
• Beautiful motif: The inside of the cups and the top of the saucers display a bright white base with a detailed, cobalt blue underglaze transfer print of swimming Koi carp and aquatic plants.
• Finish: Elegant geometric circular rim along the inside.
• Condition: In absolute mint condition. No chips, no hairline cracks, no restorations, and the glaze still shines perfectly. All pieces produce a clear 'ping' sound upon inspection. • Mark: As is typical for this specific antique export porcelain, the undersides are unmarked.
A stunning set to use for espresso, coffee, or tea, or as an eye-catcher in a display cabinet.
