    Hi all,

    Just found an old family china tea set in the attic-in very good condition. But we can't find any info on when it would have been made or by whom?

    I have attached photos-one is the front (under the image it says PINKIE) and then the back has 22kt gold and warranted written on it?

    Any ideas?

    Thanks

    It looks a bit like stuff I've seen before.

    Google : Crinoline Lady China Pinkie

    Search in images, this is how I usually find stuff.

    Can't be sure but I think it might be the one.

    Enjoy.

    Printed - mid 20thc probably.
    The 22K plating is just a marketing gimmik.

    A nice decorative service but not for the more discerning collector
