Condition: This is an elegant and delicate tea set recommended for display use only. Overall it is in very good antique condition with some flaws that have been pictured. There is a one inch hairline crack leading up to a chip on the side of one of the cups (picture #9). The cup however still feels sturdy and not like it is about to break as one picks it up. One small chip underneath the rim on that same cup (picture #12). One small chip underneath the creamer rim (picture #11). There is an old repair on the creamer’s lid handle (picture # 10).
