Description

The listing, Japanese Tashiro Shoten... Elephant mark...Hand Painted Gold Dragon Creamer and Sugar has ended.

The finest of Lusterware, and the style of dragonware.
I have researched these to my best possible efforts, these do not look like any Tashiro Shoten examples I have found.
There are no condition issues at all. These would be considered high quality to mint condition. No chips, cracks, or crackling anywhere. These were never used.
They have been tucked away in old hankies in my Great Great Aunts attic. My mother and my grandmother had never seen these. They were up in the rafters. My aunt is 87 yrs. old.
These are highly unique. Unlike the other design and styles I have found.
These speak volumes on the delicate, hand painted, high quality pieces.
The company was producing beautiful pieces in Japan
from Pre-WWII until 1954.
These would be a wonderful addition for Tashiro Shoten, Lusterware, and Dragonware collectors alike.

Happy, Happy Bidding!! :)

I really debated putting this up. I am into the shabby chic style though. These are amazing though. And very unique for a creamer and sugar shape.

Fabulous to see how well this is doing! I am so glad and it may double before the end- I HOPE! Well worth it! Beautiful Gorgeous Collectible Set! Thank you for sharing!!!

this sugar and creamer set is exquisite. they would look awesome in my corner cabinet

Feb 10th, 2014 at 12:21:52 PM PST by

Thank you. They are in great condition. My great great aunt grew up in the depression, so there are so many things that i have been given that I will keep. Thought about ebay or some other site. But I love Listia.

Feb 10th, 2014 at 1:19:29 PM PST by

These are very, very beautiful! What a find! PS You wouldn't be auctioning the handkies they were wrapped in would you?

Feb 10th, 2014 at 2:18:05 PM PST by

I have tucked those away. i can't part with those,,, my great grandmother made those. if I decide to part with one, I will let you know. I will make a note. hehe. They are so pretty the hankies.

Feb 10th, 2014 at 2:58:57 PM PST by

Wow. Very gorgeous set! I've never seen one quite like it. Just beautiful. :)

Feb 12th, 2014 at 12:23:00 PM PST by

Thank you. i wish there was a little spoon for the sugar bowl. I might have a tiny ceramic spoon, if i can find it I will send it with these to the winner. Now where did i put that spoon?

Thank you very much.

Feb 17th, 2014 at 11:42:45 AM PST by

Oh how lovely Chris, They look so delicate and rich at the same time, my only problem is that I am trying to dispose of all my knick knacks instead of adding to them, doesn't keep me from looking and admiring them though

Feb 14th, 2014 at 8:43:05 PM PST by

I understand completely. Being disabled makes it hard to keep all those wonderful family heirlooms, not to mention my collections over the years. it's so hard to keep up with house work already. LOL. :)

Feb 15th, 2014 at 9:00:13 AM PST by

This would be cool for collectors

Feb 14th, 2014 at 7:32:19 PM PST by

Yah, in looking these up I discovered there are some serious collectors of Tashiro Shoten. Thanks. The dragons on them make them look awesome. :)

Feb 15th, 2014 at 9:02:23 AM PST by

Unique
