Yes, but the experts at Antiquers have come up with "miraculous" IDs in the past, so I can only hope.
Where should we post "follow-up" information: on the original post of long ago or as a new post? For example, very helpful antiquers gave the...

I cannot see what is "second" about it. Might be something very minor. In any case, the Blue Shamrock cup & s seems to be relatively rare.

I noticed different numbers on the bottoms of pieces in this pattern: 2, 5, 0, 8. So the number is not a pattern number. Some have the Coalport...

Beautiful cobalt glaze! My guess is studio potter, not a mass production operation. Some two-tone glazes are dipped. First one part of the...
