CONDITIONThe studio art pottery cup and saucer set is in very good vintage condition. The ceramic structures show no chips, and the brown high-gloss glaze layer remains highly reflective. The hand-painted gold-gilt handle shows minor handling wear, light surface rubbing, and tiny natural glaze pinholes from the original kiln firing process. The base rings on the undersides exhibit unglazed, raw clay texture with mild shelf dust discoloration consistent with historical display.PLEASE NOTE
