Floral Fine China Cup and Saucer Set

This item is a decorative fine china coffee or tea cup and matching saucer set, currently wrapped in protective clear plastic film. The set features a delicate white porcelain base decorated with an iris-inspired floral motif. The design consists of soft pink flowers with yellow accents, surrounded by flowing, tapered blue leaves that create a sense of movement. A significant distinguishing feature is the gold-toned gilding applied to the handle of the cup and the fine rim of the saucer, suggesting a higher level of craftsmanship or a formal style. The cup is of a standard cylindrical form with a slightly tapered base, while the saucer is circular and proportionally sized to the cup's base. The glaze appears smooth and reflective under the plastic, with no immediate signs of chips, cracks, or heavy crazing visible through the film, though some light surface wear might be present on the gilded areas from handling. This style of Japanese-influenced floral design was highly popular in Mid-Century modern and late 20th-century ceramic manufacturing, often seen in marks like Noritake or Mikasa. The overall quality suggests it may have been part of a larger dinnerware service intended for formal dining or display.
