These flowers are much more natural looking and much more detailed than later ones. The set is handpainted with one large flower as well as a few small flowers scattered throughout. Brown trim to the rims. The set is in superb condition with a teeny glazed over chip to the cup rim. The saucer is 1 inch tall and 5.25 inches in diameter and has no impressed or painters marks. The cup is 1.75 inch tall and 3.125 inches in diameter (a bit oval from firing) and has the number 3 or 6 (hard to read) impressed as well as the cursive letter M in beige. Both are marked with the underglaze blue crossed swords mark that are straight. A very nice piece that would make a great addition to any collection. Porzellan Porcelaine Paypal for international bidders only unless otherwise discussed. I will send a separate invoice via Paypal if needed. Shipping is 15 Dollars including insurance (Continental US). My shipping costs are all entered into Ebay and they are flat fees. I won't change them and if you don't like them - don't bid. Fairly simple really. Sometimes I gain most times I loose on them. I combine shipping as much as I can do safely. I ship airmail only and it should be pretty fast but sometimes it takes up to ten weeks and I have no control over that. Usually it is stuck in customs. I would like an email from the winning bidder within three days if at all possible! I ship internationally and like money orders and personal checks the best. It takes a bit longer but is a lot less costly to me. I pack very safely so no worries there! I can accept Paypal if need be as well. E-mail me with any questions or concerns. I also understand that more pictures might be helpful so just ask. I will write back for sure (but don't wait till last minute). Money back guarantee for valid reasons but items are not new and in some cases 200 years plus old so keep that in mind. I also have for auction some Meissen pieces , KPM , Nymphenburg , Sevres , Vienna , Dresden , and some English pieces like Worcester and Staffordshire , etc. Something for everyone - just have a peek at the other auctions. Thanks for taking the time to look at my stuff! Hope you enjoyed the show :) Place a Bid!
