Some normal use wear to surfaces and to the gold on the rims. Some discoloration to some of the bottoms - see pics. Overall, this is a lovely set. Please Enlarge Pictures to View.
Coin in pictures is to show size and scale. Ottery & Ceramics may have factory imperfections, glaze skips, glaze pops, kiln marks, etc.
These are common and should be expected for many types of pottery. I don't make a point to mention every small factory glitch.
