This Nippon covered sugar and creamer show the unique beauty of the handpainted clay-dotted decorative techniques often used in early Nippon porcelain.<p>

The sugar and creamer are both painted in a rose design, with dark pink and lighter pink roses with spring green-colored leaves, on an aqua background. The white clay dots were then added on top of the aqua color, to create a textured, stippled effect and enhance the three (3)-dimensionality of the design. True gold accents, often in a fleur de lis shape, were applied.<p>

The sugar, which is covered and two-handled, is 5 3/4 inches from handle to handle, 3 inches tall, and has a 2 3/4-inch base. The creamer is 4 1/4 inches from lip to the farthest side of the handle, 2 1/2 to 3 inches tall (depending on what part of its shape is measured), and has a 2 1/2-inch base.<p>

Both the sugar, plus its lid, and the creamer are in excellent condition. There is minimal gold loss.<p>

This covered sugar and creamer set is unmarked as was much of this type of Nippon of this era. (A similar set and further detailed information on this type of Nippon sugar and creamer may be found in the "Collector's Encyclopedia of Nippon Porcelain, Identification and Values, Sixth Series" by Joan F. Van Patten, Collector Books, Paducah, Kentucky, Copyright 2001.)<p>

This sugar and creamer set will make a wonderful addition to a Nippon collection!<p>
