    Savoychina1
    (650 items)

    Sometimes collections take on a life of their own. Savoy China used 24KT gold and it stood out from most of the other potteries. For a long time I collected this as Savoy since it did say 24KT Gold on it. Then I bought a piece and the seller said her Uncle had made it for her Aunt at the Cameron Clay Works. Turns out there is little information about it outside of Cameron, WV. I wound up selling this collection to folks from Cameron...I hope they write a book or something, it is really superb craftsmanship.

    O K, O K, I bought the last two pieces after I sold the collection. You just can't quit Cold Turkey !

      I have a complete light blue canister set, small chip on one of the lids, otherwise in great condition. Have had it for many years, really don't want to part with it.
      Have never seen another like it, except today when I looked at ebay. There's the same set, in much worse condition, being offered at $200.
      Will keep you in mind in my foraging expeditions.

      Jay...sorry for the delay...I believe they both were made at Cameron. I have been doing research as to wether these pieces could have been made by McCoy. The gold rooster is in fact on ebay now for $70ish and listed as McCoy. There is no evidence to suggest that McCoy used this mark and certainly no proof.

      The canister sets are rare because they have CAMERON CLAY PRODUCTS embossed in the bottom. Good news/bad news...the sets are hard to find, however, not many collect them. I'm glad you have an excellent set.
