Import Tips
• Document all 12 cups/saucers plus required set pieces available in identical pattern; use ASTM C373 for absorption proof
• Watch for jiggered vs cast ratios if mixed in shipment per note 6(c)
• Label as 'porcelain' only if meeting translucency and absorption specs to prevent downgrading
