Antique Nippon Morimura Bros. Hand-Painted Teacup & Saucer Set
Beautiful antique Nippon porcelain teacup and saucer set imported by Morimura Bros., featuring a striking six-sided form with detailed gilt decoration and Art Nouveau-inspired floral and winged motifs. The design has a refined geometric shape paired with delicate hand-painted enamel accents in soft yellow, green, and cobalt blue.
Both pieces show the classic green Morimura Bros. Nippon backstamp to the cup, which date this piece sometime between 1911-1921. A very attractive display set with strong antique character.
Measurements:
Cup: approx. 3" x 2 1/2" x 2 1/2"
Saucer: approx. 4 3/4" x 3/4"
Total weight: 6 oz
Good antique condition overall with noticeable wear to the gilt, especially on the cup handle and areas along the saucer rim. No major cracks observed. One small edge chip/flake is visible on the saucer rim. Typical light age-related wear from use and handling.
