Neat set. No guess on the price. It's definitely neat, but I'll still take the cherrywood box of patterns GC auctioned off over this one.
Those were not a set in the sense that they belonged together (other than they had been together for decades in the cherrywood box). And they were mostly grade rarities.
IMHO, this set is way more special. Really the dawn of modern China.
29 bids, so seems like it might have been quite competitive. Also, a low mint state auto dollar went for $168K.

No, but clearly not my thing.

Many members on this forum that now it cannot fit in my signature. Please ask for entire list.

Sold for $850,000 ($1,020,000 with BP). Congratulations to the lucky buyer! Great set with great potential.
