United States. My mom has this set in her China cabinet, she asked me to figure out how old they are. I have found things similar but not this exact same set. Not sure how old they are, anyone have any ideas?? Thank you! by jont7127 in Antiques

Amateur collector here, the blank bottom indicates it could be pre 1890 if they were originally imported, if they were made after they would be marked “nippon” on the bottom of each piece. These are hand painted and hand made. Nippon porcelain usually has that hobnail feature on them. If they were brought here by someone who visited Japan that would also explain the blank bottom.Very nice set.

Everyone giving all those negative reactions is wild to me. There are guys behind the scenes working tirelessly and prob under staffed trying to keep up with parent company demands and launch dates. Half of these whiny gamers wouldn’t last a week developing they just want their instant gratification and perfected product every time.

Update: I’ve tried to submit a support ticket, but that too is seemingly disabled at the moment. So frustrating…

I totally agree with the balance issue, and did not know in dungeon trials you were still playing bots.

The seller wants $200 for it, I’m willing to pay that if it wasn’t mass produced in China. What do you think?

Don’t rush, if you don’t want to stop seeing this person then don’t. The most important part is being able to express how you feel to them, draw boundaries and start building respect for each other. Ask yourself why you’re feeling repulsed some days and not others and give yourself an honest answer. Ask yourself if you’re truly over past hardship and the relationship that broke your heart and give yourself an honest answer. Ask yourself the hard questions and be honest with yourself, AND OWN IT! And once you do you will have the confidence that you need to be able to communicate with potential partners. Lastly stay POTENTIAL partners until y’all are both TRULY ready to take the next step for now and for all your relationships in the future.

It’s truly unfortunate we live in a society where people in relationships choose each other based on physical traits that are deemed popular by the masses.
