From my grandmother's cabinet (she died in 1984). Is marked on bottom and from what I have been able to discover is called "Reflecting Lilies," and alternates being a child's chocolate set or a tea set. I gently wipe with a dry rag and leave in a closed door curio. Any info and value appreicated; I'm putting together a book to be given to my daughter on all the family antiques/heirlooms I have inherited and would like to give her some background on the item even if I can't tell her how "we" can to have it. Thank you.
Your set is a very desirable RS Prussia child's tea (or possibly coffee) set, as determined by the pot's spout. Briefly, RSP was produced in Suhl, Thuringia, Prussia and a second factory is Tillowitz, Upper Silesia. For a detailed review of the history and time periods, visit http://www.rsprussia.net and http://www.rsprussia.com. Also, refer to the numerous guide books that are listed on these sites. The RSP club hosts annual conventions with seminars, sales and auctions. Hope this helps.
