Baker & Co. willow is a little harder to find than some of the other makers that had a big export business to the US. I show only a plate, platter and a 5.25 inch jug in my book. The 7.5 inch plate was made in the late 19th century as the word "England" does not appear on the mark. The other pieces are dated from 1893 to 1932. Production of willow pattern ceased during World War II, and may not have resumed after the war. The Baker & Co. willow is not more valuable than other British dinnerware as it is about the same quality as most made during that period. It would take quite awhile to build up a set. Many of us mix and match the makers for everyday use.
