Japanese Pottery


                              


Antique Japanese Satsuma Earthenware Tea Set has 20 pieces in all. Very intricately and beautifully hand painted of Japanese women. There is a golden dragon on top of each large piece. Each piece has the Satsuma pottery mark.Tea pot measures 9"H. There is a crack on the spout. It looks like it was repaired. Sugar measures 8"H,the creamer measures 7"H. 6 cups and saucers. There is some ware on the saucers. One cup has small chip on the rim. There is crazing because of age. The salt and pepper measure 2 3/4 "H. There is some chipping on the top of the salt shaker. Over all a beautiful hand painted set. This set has been appraised at 7000.00. Will consider reasonable offer.



This is a beautiful set of three bowls, one fits inside of the other as seen in photos. There is a multi floral and bird design on all three and there is a maker mark on the bottom of each. The size of the largest bowl is 10" wide and the second is 8.5" wide,  the third is 7 1/4" wide.
These are from a very fine estate in historical Kennesaw, Ga. near Atlanta. We bought the estate of a full bird US ARMY Colonel. He had been stationed in Japan and many other countries. He bought these antique bowls in the 70's. 
Very nice antique condition.
