So I came across a few interesting small items that I thought I'd share with you all, and try and get a little more info on them if possible...
Item 1:
2 Japanese Tea Cups (I think), makings on the bottom are Japanese and say Japan on them, the cups are both hand painted...

Item 2:

Nice Cups for sure. Did you get Saucers too for them?
-
Unfortunately no it was just the 2 cups, but I am correct about them being from a tea set right?
-
Yes usually they come in sets, but very few full set really survive. Nice hand painted and made for export, value is around $20.00 for a nice cup with the saucer, but cups alone well not so much, at least I have not been able to sell just a cup, sometimes just a saucer. You may want to keep a good eye out for the saucer at the thriftstore, sometimes I find a match later.

It would be nice to be able to see the marks on the bottom of the cup (for an I.D.) but the image is too fuzzy for me to help, or try to help I.D. them, Hybrid.
Great advice, ironlord.
