    This is another item of my grandmothers I am curious about. It appears to be a picnic/ tea set but unfortunately I think the cup is missing. What looks like the saucer doubles as the lid of the teapot. The pot itself is ceramic and 15cm high so is quite large. There are no visible identifying marks on the pot or the basket. I have just found out that it belongs to the thriving porcelain industry that grew up in Hong Kong from the 1930's and after WWII. (Qing dynasty - Early Republic 1910 - 1950)
