Antique tea cup & saucer set (2) , Hand Painted Nippon, porcelain.

These unusual, very delicate tea cups and saucers are just so different from typical Nippon antiques. I believe they are from the 1920's or earlier. I've included a picture of a cup held up to light to illustrate the thin and delicate nature of the sets, making me wonder if these are actually bone china. The hand-painted motif is raised, especially the white flowers. The saucers do not have the typical impression for the cup and are larger than normal tea cup saucers (7.25"). This makes them easier for adding a cookie or other tidbit. Price is for the both sets, no damage; no stains, cracks, chips, etc. The orange paint does show signs wear, typical for pieces of this age.
