    I'm having trouble finding info about these two pieces, a large teapot and a large coffee pot (though it looks more like a chocolate pot to me). Both have gold trim on the handles and spouts. Both have a crossed swords mark and a little blue number near the base rim. Is this real Meissen? Any idea when they were made?
    Thank you so much!

    "Fabulous Meissen Star Blue Onion teapot with gold accents and a rosebud finial. Gold designs are painted on the handle and spout, with gold rims on the lid and top of the pot, and a gold band painted around the base. Beautifully molded rosebud finial. This two cup teapot stands 5 3/4" tall and measures 5 1/2" from spout to handle. Very good condition with no discernable gold loss, two small chips underneath the lid and a tiny crack inside the pot. It appears that the lid had two lips that fit into the two slots in the pot to secure the lid and they are broken off. No outside damage to the pot or lid. Marked with Meissen's crossed swords with pommels, circa 1882."

    It’s certainly very good quality. If I had to cast a vote I’d cast it for they are legit.
