    I love the steel grey of the glaze on this tea set along with the delicate hand-painted (or so I was gold) flowers and butterflies. I can't read Japanese and would love to know what the signature says on the bottom. One of the cups has a chip and if it is a maker's mark I'd be inclined to replace it to have a full set. Thanks for help from any of you knowledgeable types. I hope you like it too.

      I did not find your mark in a search of Gotheborg and other references. I think it may be too modern. But if you wish to replace a cup, you could try Replacements. com, the link below. Send them the first three photos. Good luck.

      Great idea Wexval, thanks. Yes, it is definitely pretty modern.
