Identification Posted by Bill Evans on May 3, 2025, 1:31 pm I found one listing on ebay for this pattern that called it "1800's Aesthetic Period English Tea set black multi color transfer ware". I was hoping to find out some of the history of it. It belonged to my wife's grandmother who lived in a home in Connecticut that was built in the 1600s and was in their family most of its time. It must have been important since one saucer that appears to have been broken into 4 pieces looks like it was professionally repaired. Thanks for your time and expertise.

Re: Identification Posted by Len on May 4, 2025, 7:34 pm, in reply to "Identification" Hi Bill. Thanks for sharing your wife's grandmother's saucer, which must be so nice to have. We do have quite a few patterns in the database featuring flowers and fruit in baskets, but I don't see any that match this design. Since it's unmarked and has the staple repair it is almost certainly 19th century but without a mark or anything else to go on it's hard to pinpoint exact age or maker. Hopefully in time we can find out more!
