Geisha are Japanese women who entertain through performing the ancient traditions of art, dance and singing, and are distinctively characterized by traditional costumes and makeup. This tradition is beautifully captured here in this antique tea set that is very old, circa 1860s to 1926.
This set is trimmed in gold gilt aka gold encrusted. I have more pictures if you need to see them. The set is missing one saucer and one saucer was damaged and glued back together; you can not tell it is broken when seen from the front. Please look at all photos carefully as point out the damage.
