Antique childs Tea Set $?
« on: January 24, 2006, 07:45:55 pm »
I have a  great childs tea set and would like to know what it is worth.Or even where to find a simmlar one to compare.
It has the stamp and ribbon if  Jlemau, and "Carmen"  under that. Each piece is stamped "347" then "28" under that.
It is a unique set, each piece has a different scene, yet the same couple and theme.It is in perfect condition.
Any help would be greatly appreciated....

Here's the best Germany site for backstamps:

http://www.porcelainmarksandmore.com/

Select the area called Thuringia and scroll the towns to Ilmenau and you'll find several manufacturers each having its own mark.

Value could be $250 or more.  Depends - age condition size of set etc - transfer ware or hand painted -

Run a google as - ilmenau tea set germany - it should bring up both full size and child size sets - and if you can determine exact mfg co use it along with the Ilmenau or try Jlmenau.  It will be worth your time.  KB
