A five-piece set of Carlton Ware, Walking Ware series, 1970s, including two teacups, a lidded sugar pot, and two egg stands. My family purchased this set about 45 years ago at The Ginza (Shiseido) in Ginza. It was displayed in a glass cabinet without being used. The different colors of the socks and shoes make them look like they are about to start walking, and they are fun to look at. There is crazing throughout, but please rest assured that there are no cracks. There are no chips or cracks on the items. They are items that can be used as practical items. There is a spot of discoloration to brown inside the blue and black teacups, possibly due to aging. There is no other discoloration. Please check photos 17-19 for confirmation. It is believed to be a rare set that is no longer available for purchase. I will sell it to someone who will cherish it.
