Vintage Japanese Burnt Orange Lustre Dragonware Coffee and Tea Set 10 Pieces

I couldn't have been more pleased when I spotted this dragonware across a crowded brocante shop as this style of Japanese porcelain is something that my eye seems to becoming increasingly attracted to. However, my enthusiasm was somewhat tempered when I got closer and noticed the lack of cups! Undaunted, I bought what was there in the hope that someone out there has a few stray cups they'd like to match up.

The set here comprises a coffee pot and cream jug, a tea pot and milk jug, one lidded sugar bowl and a sole cup and saucer. There are a few spare saucers listed seperately. The dragon in relief is grey and white and each piece has a distinctive orange band complemented by orange and blue swirls.

The whole set is in very good condition and I estimate the age to be around the 1960s. I have shown the mark to the bottom as I was so pleased to identify it online only to find that this mark translates as the somewhat generic 'Dai Nippon' or Great Japan!
