  2. dav2no1 and keramikos thank you both for for you excellent assistance. It's a great image by Michel even if I can't give a location. Steve.
  3. maryhigh1956,thanks for your comments. The size of the set certainly prevents a maker's mark being printed, but the colors don't quite match up as Mason's' The Wilkinson's tray and body color are iden...
