These porcelain Koransha hashioki are about 2.75" long x 1" wide x ,75" high and each is marked on the bottom with the Koranasha orchid mark and some additional text in gold. These came with the original box which is a bit dirty but the hashioki are in mint condition, so this is perhaps just from handling and storage. Not sure of a date on these. They could be as early as the 1930s, but that is off the top of my head. I do not remember what I determined when I did my original research on these. I think that the really "chatty" marks are much later. I think these probably date to around the 1970s.
A beautiful set Kevin, wonderful with the box.
this is late signing for sure, because i know this from the Tsubaki signing , that is the only thing i know
Thanks for your comments, Karen! Koransha equals quality!
Thanks for your comments, apostata! I agree, probably something like 1970s.
