Looking for any info on this pattern. It looks like transferware, but there is no makers mark at all. Also, the blue feels a bit 'bumpy' or rough when touched. Does anyone recognize this pattern, or know how I can figure it out? With no mark I don't know where to begin.
I have 2 small plates, 1 small bowl.
There appears to originally have a thin gold rim, but is almost all worn off. I appreciate any help!
Try blue ironstone.
Hi, I am also looking to identify this pattern of blue transfer ware too, I have four cups and six saucers, they have been in our family for over 70 years, but I have no idea who made them.
Hi while researching my cups and saucers I found that your plates were made in England, by Blair & Co., at the Beaconsfield Pottery in Longton, now part of Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, probably in the 1880’s to 1890's, but possibly a little later.
Further research has led me to believe that Blair & Co may not be the manufacturer because they used a different cup shape. I have been told the date for my cups and saucers is likely to be 1850 to 1875 probably made in Staffordshire, the pattern is quite distinctive Blair & Co used a very similar pattern but it was not identical.
Hi, It looks very much like the pattern 'KEW' by Copeland / Spode. Google that and it will probably at least be a good starting point. Best wishes!
