Long Description
Bought two of these mugs or cups at an estate sale of former antique store owner. They have the Nippon wreath with the M on the bottom, but I can't tell if it's real or not.
I can't find anything similar on eBay. I did a Google images search and found this pattern listed as a beverage service with a water pitcher and four mugs.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
They are about 4.5 inches high and 4 inches wide at the bottom.

Re: Hand painted Nippon Mug - Mission style, Arts & Crafts style
The stamp looks authentic. I'll try to research and see if it is a fantasy piece or not. If you reply to this I'll get a follow up email so I can find it again. Lol
