Description
A striking vintage Japanese porcelain tea set comprising 15 pieces, decorated with raised dragon motifs highlighted in gilt and subtle pastel tones against a dark ground.
The set includes a teapot, lidded sugar bowl, milk jug, six cups and six matching saucers.
The dragons are rendered in relief, wrapping around each piece in a traditional Japanese style, while the rich black, grey and gold colour palette creates a dramatic decorative effect.
The interiors are finished in a warm amber glaze, providing an attractive contrast to the exterior decoration.
A wonderful display set for collectors of Japanese ceramics, Oriental decorative arts, or vintage tea ware.
Equally suited to display within a cabinet, on a dresser, or as part of a themed interior.
