I have a little set of china I picked up at Goodwill for $5 (for 13 pieces). I have been trying to decide what each piece was meant for. 
There is no maker's mark on the bottom, but they look a little Japanese. I put this little cup in this "saucer" and it looked very much like a tea set. But, I am not sure.
What do you think? Does it pass for a tea set.
Whatever it is, I used it for a little Mother's Day tea for me.
I am loving the pattern and colors on it. Thanks for viewing my tea!
This was a re-post from 2011. I knew this spring was going to be crazy busy and it is!

It does look like a set, pretty.

Hi Sherry,
Your photos are wonderful and I think your tea cup looks lovely in its saucer! Very pretty pattern! Love your pretty white teapot too. Thanks for coming by to have tea with me. Have a lovely week.
Blessings,

Beautiful vignettes. Beautiful teacup and saucer too.
I think your set is for tea. Tea cups initially did not have handles and many Asian tea cups still don't. It is really a lovely pattern!

Very pretty cup and saucer. V

What a find! Love the colors! ~Blessings~~Shine
Sherry, your images are gorgeous. Beautiful little set and the white teapot is exquisite. I'll have tea with you any day. ~ Sarah
I think it's a really lovely set. I would use it for tea, too. And then, I might just rinse it out and enjoy a little fried rice soup to boot.
Sherry, the delicate linens and tea cup are lovely. Hope you had a lovely weekend. hugs♥olive
Hello there dear Sherry,
I always love visitng your delightful blog!
What a lovely teatime vignette with your lovely china teacup, beautiful linens and delicate dried rose buds scattered so artistically amidst your tableaux!
Thanks for the inspiration!
..,(Unfortunately my computer was unable to
connect to the internet for awhile, so I'm later getting by to visit at least half of the folks who were part of Tuesday's Tea's)..,Oh well!
Thanks also for joining Pam and I for TTTT and also for my 82nd, 'Tuesday Tea For Two'. We always love having you join us all in the fun of partaking with, 'Tuesday Tea Time In Blogland'!
Cheers and hugs from Wanda Lee
You got a real deal on your china no matter what the pattern. It is beautiful and so delicate looking. Don't you just love it when you find something exciting for just a little money? Everything looks just wonderful.
I can’t believe another week has gone by with another delightful tea party. I love how the tablecloth compliments the clours of your sweet teacup.
It would not be so enjoyable without you and your creative touch. I always look forward to seeing you as often as you can pop in.
Blessings,
Pam
What a beautiful group of photos..as always!
My response: They are beautiful, you love them, Use them any way that pleases you. and ....you found a BARGAIN

Definitely a tea set - and very beautiful, too!
How elegant and feminine! Enjoy the day!
Hi Sherry,
It certainly looks like a set to me. It is so very pretty too. I love the colours and the fact that the cup doesn't have a handle makes it very unique, I think. Thanks for coming to tea.
Blessings,
Sandi
Just beautiful and such a good price! (Your Goodwill appears to have better prices than ours!)
Hello,
Tea in a beautiful tea cup like this one and a embroidery napkins are my favorite. They are looking so lovely!
Thanks for sharing.
