Hi, I have inherited a Tea or Coffee set. My parents lived in Hong Kong in 1971/72 and received it as a wedding present. Apart from that I know nothing about it. It probably isn't worth anything, just after more info if anyone has any.

If you lift the cup up to the light there is a woman's head in the bottom of the cup.

Any info appreciated....Thanks

Hi Kazzz, I believe that it is a Geisha girl on the bottom, it is called a Lithophane, I have a couple of these my self, they are from the 1930's to 50's, yours are more than likely Seto.
