This porcelain demitasse cup and saucer set was made in Japan for export and features an elegant ivory ground decorated with delicate gilt floral accents. The saucer is centered with a rich red well bordered by gold, while the cup displays a scalloped rim and a gold-tone handle, adding a refined decorative touch. The underside is marked Made in Japan, indicating mid-20th-century production intended for the Western market. The combination of soft ivory tones, red accenting, and gold decoration reflects classic Japanese export porcelain styling and makes this set suitable for display or collection.
