[QUOTE="bercrystal, post: 10449, member: 88"]I love the flower handle also. :happy: In fact the decoration on the whole piece is very well done. I did check on gotheborg & found a few that were close but I was going cross eyed trying to read the different calligraphy marks. :confused: I did check for lithopanes & there are none on the cups. The one thing I did notice is that even the teapot is a very thin porcelain. It is not as thin as the cups but you can see the design from the inside.
