Looking at the box, I'd say a little later, 1950s. (My dad made packaging!) These make lousy tea. ;)
Your aunt probably made this. I think it may be closer to the 1920s given the bead colour and the fabric. Lovely thing.
It's a dead pinch on coloured parian and jasperware patterns, as is the jug shape. Interesting!
It's well post war and these weren't actually designed by her, they just used her name. Looks like stem ginger to me.
I'd have said that was a bosun's whistle too. Seen enough of them.
Yup, it's considered fortunate in Japan to have things in sets of five.
I love this. May I suggest you buy a notebook, write down everything you did to have this made and add the stage by stage photos. Then, keep the...
Irish Provincial I'd say. And yes, Art Nouveau. I strongly suspect it had a footstool. I think it would sell better here than there, as it were.

Me Too As Well Also. ;)
Tim's is probably post WW2. RD marks are first date and can cover a wide span. No British factory would have made fancy goods like this for most...
MTAWA.
Ruth, put some photos up of the animals if you would. You might be surprised.
Beswick still sells well if it's an animal with an unusual colour. Not 1940s, this, pottery factories were making war related stuff. I'd think...
Spain didn't export much of anything until the very very late 50s and into the erly 60s. The Years of Hunger and all that - and they'd never had...
I've seen it written here as VIIII . It's more obviously the number nine than IX which can be interpreted as nine or eleven if you read it the...

Separate names with a comma.
