Antique SNB Nippon Tea Set Lot Teapot & 3 Saucers Hand Painted Scenic Gold Japan

Description:

Beautiful antique Japanese porcelain tea set lot consisting of one teapot and three matching saucers, marked SNB Nippon on the underside. These pieces date to the late 19th or early 20th century, likely circa 1891–1921, during the Nippon export era.

The set features delicate green scenic medallions framed by elaborate gilt decoration and rich burgundy borders. The scenes appear hand-painted or transfer decorated and exhibit age-related wear consistent with their antique status.

Included:

• 1 teapot (missing lid)

• 3 matching saucers

Condition:

This is an antique set with condition issues and is being sold as found.

• Teapot is missing its lid

Please examine photos carefully as they form part of the description.

Despite the flaws, this is a lovely and increasingly hard-to-find antique Nippon set with wonderful display appeal and historical charm. Perfect for collectors of Nippon porcelain, antique tea wares, or decorative Victorian and Edwardian china.

Estate-found and preserved with its original antique character.
