    I have come across 5 sets (only 4 pics allowed) of my great grandmothers German cups and saucers. All 5 are in perfect shape with no cracks or chips. On the bottom of each cups is the makers mark which is outlined below in order of the pictures above:

    - Rosenthals Gelb Bavaria in green. What looks like handwritten in gold, and hard to read, is Handmalerpi A.D 404
    - Hutschenreuther Gelb in green with a male lion in a circle with LHS under it. Handwritten in gold is 2228 23 on the cup
    - Rosenthals Gelb Bavaria in green. What looks like handwritten in gold, and hard to read, is Handmalerpi A.D.
    - Kgl.priv.Tettau in green with a crest with a lion on the right holding a shield with a T and 4794

    The fifth cup and saucer not pictured is Rosenthals Gelb Bavaria in gold and white.

    If anyone would have any information on these cups and saucers in terms of their age that would be great. Thank you in advance for any assistance.

      Hi, KenStuff. :-)

      Valuation isn't done here in Collectors Weekly Show & Tell.

      Beyond that issue, you need to create separate posts for each cup and saucer so that you can provide pictures of the back stamps. Sometimes a picture really is worth a thousand words, and pictures of the backstamps (rather than just text descriptions) will help.

      Just for grins, I downloaded all four of your current images in this post so that I could run them through Replacements dot com's visual search tool.

      The only one it could find any matches for was the pattern in your second picture of the dark blue and gold cup and saucer.

      The problem? The pattern doesn't appear to be Rosenthal; it looks like Hutschenreuther. That is to say, the saucer looks like Hutschenreuther:

      Whoops, I'm multi-tasking today, and I failed to read with sufficient care: you already know that your second picture is Hutschenreuther.

      Still, my advice about separate posts stands.
