Purchased at a department store event. This is a very cute teacup with red and gold chrysanthemum flowers. I think it would be great for making matcha. There is some gold paint flaking, chips, scratches, and dirt typical of antiques. Please bid if you are accustomed to old items. This is a personal inspection, so please forgive any oversights. I have pets. Please understand that this item has been stored at home for a long time. Shipping is only available on weekdays. It may be shipped via Yamato.
