    Hello community! I have this lovely cup and saucer. As for me, it is looks like London shape cup. Handle is similar to Spode and New Hall. Nicely hand painted. But I have no idea about maker… So I would try to ask you, do you know this pattern? What do you think about this set?

    Thank you!
    P.S. love you all. It is the best forum I’ve ever been before

    Just my humble opinion :)...
    A "London shape" cup has straight sides, yours is flared a bit so I believe it may be more correctly called an "Old English shape". (See THIS.) The body of the Old English cup is sometimes fluted or paneled, but not always.
    However, even among cup/saucer collectors there is some disagreement/confusion concerning shape names of cups.
    The handle style is often called "batwing".
    I'm surprised there is not even a painted number on the bottoms of the pieces, which was fairly common on older English stuff.
    Though English remains a possibility, I'd also consider Old Paris porcelain (Vieux Paris), which was typically unmarked.

    Given the shape, handle and somewhat deep saucer, I would say British, early 19th c. I don't know enough about New Hall to say whether it is or not, or what the pattern might be. Looks in great condition.
