    hi! i absolutely love my celadon dragon tea set! they are unmarked but my dragon has 5 toes so i am guessing it's chinese and made in the late 1800s...i had my first cup of tea using this set and i couldn't be happier...i was very lucky to get 4 tea cups with matching saucers so i can serve guests...thank you for looking and i welcome any info or comments....love this site!
