Charming vintage porcelain child's tea set featuring a delicate blue and white gradient glaze with hand-painted pink floral designs and gold accents. The set includes a tall tea pot, a creamer, a sugar bowl, and four matching demitasse cups with saucers. Each piece has elegant curved handles and decorative gold scrollwork that gives the set a classic Victorian-style look. The pieces show light signs of age consistent with vintage use but remain very displayable and functional. According to AI it is most likely Austrian from the late 19th century. This would make a lovely addition to a china collection, a decorative shelf, or as a gift for a child who loves fancy playthings.
Chat GPT says "Even unmarked, a complete set like this often brings $125–250 at auction, sometimes more if collectors like the decoration." Unfortunately the tea pot and sugar bowl are missing their lids, and one of the tea cups has a chip. There is also what looks like some dried liquid (tea with honey) around the spout that can be scraped off with your fingernails.) Despite these flaws you can't deny the gorgeous colors and stunning design.
My mom collected antiques her entire life. She loved going to flea markets and thrift stores in search of hidden treasures. Now that she has passed I am selling off her collection.
