<p>[QUOTE="tyeldom3, post: 240256, member: 43"]After viewing sold prices for similar courting couple's Dresden cups & saucers, I see quite a difference in prices. What do I need to know? Is it condition, shape, the art work, etc., that makes a difference in the prices? These have no chips or cracks, but there is gold wear/loss. Both pieces have a Dresden mark on the base, but the cup has another impressed mark which looks like it could be initials? but I can't see it well enough. Is that mark important, and do I need to know what it reads?</p><p>Also, the saucer has the blue ish coloring on 2 of the scenes, and the cup has a purplish coloring on 2 of the scenes, is this a mis-matched set?, or was it made this way? Thanks so much for your time.</p><p>Happy Mother's Day to you mom's!<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]73345[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]73346[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]73347[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]73348[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]73349[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]73350[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
