China find!

A friend picked these up for me at a caterer’s going out of business sale this week. 24 cups, 16 plates for $20.

Arrow through to the left and I have pictures of the 3 patterns. The roses look very much the same on all 3 but the sculpting on the cups and plates differs. Going to look and see what I can find out about them. I assume being from a caterer that they are nothing awesome but I’m still curious.

I love that cup on the left in the picture that is 3rd to the right!

Whoops! Glad you said something to go make me look. I got my right and left confused. :)

What’s it say on the bottom?

Best I can find so far is that it is probably Japan China in the Moss Rose pattern for at least 2 of the sets. Don’t think it’s old or rare. The marks are different on all 3 but on Replacements.com it looks like that pattern had two different styles of cups. One set has just a black and gold sticker that says “JAPAN” One set has the notation “31/10A Japan” and the other has a symbol that looks like a combined S, H & C with Japan underneath it and Bella Rose under that.
