    Description

    Discover the hidden artistry of this exquisite Japanese Dragonware tea set, featuring a striking 3-piece service for two. These pieces are crafted from fine porcelain and finished in a vibrant cobalt blue with hand-applied "moriage" (raised enamel) depicting fierce, swirling dragons and colorful clouds.

    The "Geisha" Surprise: The true highlight of this set is the lithopane feature—when the teacups are held up to the light, a delicate, highly detailed image of a Geisha's face appears in the bottom of the porcelain. This traditional Japanese "hidden" art form adds a magical layer of history and craftsmanship to your tea service.

    Set Includes:

    • Two (2) Teacups: Featuring raised moriage dragon details and lithopane bottoms.
    • Two (2) Saucers: Matching cobalt blue with gold-rimmed edges.
    • Two (2) Side/Dessert Plates: To complete the coordinated table setting.
