TEASET? FROM WHERE? WHEN?

TEASET? FROM WHERE? WHEN?

I managed to get 2 photographs of both sides of one of a matching set of "bowls" that are somewhat blurry, but under 1Meg so that they can appear on your site,

In between the marking on the bottom and the song marks, someone should surely have the expertise to divine the nature of these items.

Anyone up to it?

 Better Pictures
by: Mark Borun

Now that I have my hands on a camera that doesn't have so darn many pixels (to keep under 1M) I can re-shoot it, or, of course, try the compression feature that Peter suggests...

Hi Mark,
The pictures are too blurred. You will need better ones to make things viewable. You can also upload larg pictures to Photobucket and post the link here. This way larger images are possible.

Anyway, Tang Yi Yuan Hao was a workshop known to have operated in the early republic. If it was also active in the 1900s, the part that fell into the Qing dynasty, I do not know. The gilt used cannot be much older than that.
Try also getting a clear image of the writing, in the area where the mark is. Sometimes these items are dated.
