Red SAJI Hnd-Pntd Teacup & Saucer

This charming mid-century Japanese export teacup and saucer set features a rich burgundy/maroon ground with a large hand-painted white blossom (magnolia-style) accented in soft blue and yellow, with green leaves and delicate gold detailing. The cup sits on three gilt ball feet and has a matching scalloped saucer, an eye-catching display piece for collectors of “Occupied Japan” china.
