Title: Asian tea set
Post by: wendy177 on August 18, 2009, 01:50:19 PM

Unfortunately I have no cups to go with this set. Every box I open is like Christmas. Last one  for today I  promise.
Thank you

I'm semi-fairly sure the mark reads Satsuma , in 'hiragana' characters .

Cool little tea set .

Thanks regularjoe I have been researching  satsuma but the more I look at the more confused I get. Can't tell if it is real or repo. what the value is or dating of pieces!! This stuff is hard to figure out.
