Title: Looking for Info
Post by: pennyg on August 30, 2005, 07:21:26 AM
Hi,  I'm very new to this but I am looking for information.  I have a tea set that my father bought in Germany in a jewelry shop in 1945 during WWII.  It is white china with a gold floral (more like a vine) pattern.  The tea cups are 22K gold on the inside.  The handles and spout of the tea pot, sugar bowl and creamer are 22k gold also.  There are 6 cups and saucers.  On the bottom of the pieces are the words Hutschenreuther Gelb.  There is a circle with a lion and the letters L.H.S inside.  Bavaria Germany and the word Weimar under the lion symbol.

It is still a complete set in excellent condition.  Thanks for any help.

According to the following site, Weimer refers to a shape.   I suggest you go to that site and scroll thru the patterns to find your own.

If you click the blue band on the left, it opens up the thumbnail pics - this is quality porcelain - how fortunate to have such a set - values given on that site are high retail replaaacement - they may, or may not, reflect the actual value you could receive if selling your set.  Best wishes, KB
