This item has been stored for a long time. There appears to be some residue from the manufacturing process on the underside of the saucers and cups. There are also some spots and unevenness in the firing. The milk pitcher has a chip on the rim (it appears to be coated over the chip). Please confirm the condition of the item with the photos before purchasing. A lovely tea set with a simple design! For those who understand that this is a used item. Thank you for your consideration. #miniature #miniatureteaset
