5 pc Tea Set from Lima, Peru with Fish Teapot, Sugar Bowl, Creamer -- EXC

Description

Great serving set from Lima, Peru. Purchased at a flea market in Argentina 20 years ago. Set includes a teapot with lid, sugar bowl with lid, and a cream pitcher. They look so great on display. The lid to the sugar bowl has some fleabites on the underside (see photos); otherwise these appear unused. The design features a band of black stylized kissing fish on white background. Main color is brown. Teapot measures approximately 5 1/2" tall to the top of the lid and is 8" across from handle to spout. Sugar bowl is approximately 3 1/2" tall to the top of the lid and is 3 3/4" across. Cream pitcher is approximately 4 1/2" across from handle to spout and is 2 5/8" tall. Several pieces show crazing on the white glaze. Each base is hand signed. A set of cups and saucers (with a cat design) is available in a separate auction.
