Missing colours Posted by Dave Bevan on July 6, 2012, 4:47 pm Hi I have just obtained a Spode bowl that has had the initial transfer outline applied but no colours. The bowl is perfect but does this make it a rarity or worthless. Thanks Dave

Re: Missing colours Posted by Connie Rogers on July 7, 2012, 1:51 pm, in reply to "Re: Missing colours" 24.165.108.63 Hi Dave, Your Copeland bowl is somewhat of an oddity. There are many patterns complete without the color filled in; however, this one does look better with color. You can see a colored Chinese Rose pattern platter in Smith's SPODE & COPELAND on p. 141. It is a 20th century pattern, and that particular platter is dated to c. 1952. The Rd. No. indicates that the pattern was registered in 1913. The pattern number 2/9253 is dated 1931 which would have been the date it was first produced by Copeland. The dates for pattern numbers from the Copeland period are given by Robert Copeland on p. 121 in SPODE & COPELAND MARKS, 2nd edition. You have a nice useful bowl!

Re: Missing colours Posted by David on July 6, 2012, 4:52 pm, in reply to "Missing colours" 75.36.133.146 Dave, many Spode patterns consisted only of the original transfer, with no additional application of colors. If you posted an image, we might perhaps be able to tell you more.
