Tashiro Shoten Blue Lusterware Creamer & Sugar Bowl with Lid Made in Japan
Here is a beautiful vintage Lusterware creamer and covered sugar bowl from Tashiro Shoten
This company shut down in the 1950's. Maker's mark is the company's elephant and "Made in Japan" on the bottom
Color is blue opalescent on the outside and opalescent pearl on the inside
The sugar bowl is a little larger than the creamer. This seems to be the style in these older Japanese tea sets
Sugar bowl stands about 5 inches in height with the lid on and measures about 6 1/2 inches from handle to handle
Creamer stands about 3 3/4 inches in height at the spout and measures about 5 inches from handle to tip of spout
They both are in nice condition with no chips, cracks or breaks. Sugar bowl does have natural molding pin pricks.
