Subject:HHP letters in a red wreath
Posted By: SARAH Mon, Oct 05, 2015 IP: 5.69.243.174

Hello. I have just found a lovely tea set with the letters 'H' above 'HP' in a red wreath on the bottom of all items. Can anyone enlighten me as to who the makers are and would the tea set be expensive??

A Japanese product from the 20th century. Look at the bottom of any piece turned toward the light. There is probably a lithopane figure of a Geishas head to be discovered there. Value is often determined by the complexity of the (dragon) design.
