This is my favorite color of all time. To find this teacup made my heart swell! The olive green is gorgeous! The tea cup is like new, but fine china! It is rimmed with metallic, shiny silver. The plate is SO cute & antique! The set did not come together, I found them separately & am selling them together because it works so well! According to my research the plate is silver, or sliver plated, not pewter because it is tarnished, & apparently pewter does not tarnish. I polished it as best I could, but I need to do some more research on how to truly banish the tarnish & get this silver to shine! I do have some 100% pewter tankard/ beer mugs going up soon so keep an eye out! Vintage Olive Green & Silver Teacup With Antique Plate | Fine China Graceful Nasco Pewter Set Cup
