Title: Soviet Union made Tea Set
Post by: hajoca on November 19, 2011, 10:06:52 AM
Greetings, I recently acquired a tea set from an auctioned storage unit that also included some valuable antique European jewlery and an elaborate German china set. This tea set includes the tea pot w/ bowl, a sugar pot, 6 saucers, and 6 cups. The bottom of each piece is stamped with a matching designer stamp and a series of numbers and letters. On the bottom of one of the cups there is the matching designer stamp but also a stamp reading "MADE IN USSR"  I am seeking any information anyone may have on the stamp itself and which company it belongs to and just the rarity/peculiarity of a Sovient Union made tea set. Thanks in Advance! Photos Attached.

I believe your set was made by "LOMONOSOV" Here is a link to the company's history.

And here is a set like yours on Ebay:

I am not very good and details but am learning (thanks to all the wonderful people here lol) Hopefully though these two links will help and maybe some of the others can give you a more expert opinion!
