antique 1800s ironstone china tea set, teal blue green floral transferware dishes, simple rustic cottage vintage

Lovely very old, very rustic ironstone china tea set, with little cups and saucers, very small plates, a teapot more like a toy than a modern teapot!

This might have been a Victorian era child's set, but I think it was probably made as real dishware. Something that might have been ordered by mail from a farm family or someone in a small, rural town. It's cheaply, roughly made - but so pretty, and obviously cherished. It's a complete set without chips or cracks, about 150 years old.

The floral pattern is a blue-green colored transferware design, which is a little different from piece to piece though the color is a match. There's no makers marks on any of these pieces, I don't know the pattern name, or where this was made though it's probably English.

The tea pot is about 4" tall, the cups a little over 2" tall. There's some light discoloration and crazing to many of these pieces from age - but no damage from use.
