The pattern is of the iconic and dainty Violets and Dasies. This china is hefty, thick restaurant ware which was used on the Chicago Burlington & Quincey Railroad passenger trains. They belonged to my great-grandmother, who had collected railroad china most of her life. There are no chips or cracks on either set of the demitasse cups, saucers or the butter pad. They show very slight signs of usage, especially down inside the cups where spoons had stirred the coffee all those years ago. The dinner plate has a hairline crack and shows slight signs of use, where the glaze has worn down in places. Please see the photos for details. I can send more photos upon request. The back stamps of the saucers read “4-EE” on one, and the other saucer reads 9-DD. The cups measure nearly 2-1/2″ tall by 3″ wide (including handle). The saucers measure nearly 4-5/8 in diameter. The butter pat has no backstop. It measures nearly 3-3/8 in diameter. The dinner plate back stamp reads 10-BB. ” It measures nearly 9″ in diameter. PLEASE ask me any questions you may have before purchasing. Items will be packaged with the utmost care and very well cushioned. All sales are final. My items come from a non-smoking home. Have a wonderful day!
