Japanese Hand-Painted Porcelain Tea Set (12-piece)

A refined antique Japanese tea set, consisting of six cups and six saucers, entirely hand-painted on exceptionally fine Japanese porcelain.

The decoration features colorful roosters and flowers in a serene landscape, executed with subtle brushwork, soft grey tones, and beautiful gilded accents. Each piece is individually painted, resulting in slight variations that highlight the craftsmanship.

The porcelain is remarkably thin and translucent, underscoring the high quality of the material used. The elegant gold rim and sophisticated painting give the set a tranquil, classic appearance characteristic of high-quality Japanese export porcelain from the early twentieth century.

A complete and decorative set that is suitable for both collectors of Japanese porcelain and enthusiasts of a warm, classic interior.
