<p>[QUOTE="dgbjwc, post: 89696, member: 308"]Hi bluumz - I'm afraid all I can offer is speculation or information you already know. Charles Field Haviland company produced the white ware but the decoration was most likely by another studio that added the globe mark. According to my book (Gaston) CFH produced transferware decorated pieces but not hand painted pieces. These decorating companies are not well documented. It could even be an exporter's mark. I haven't come across that globe mark before. The CFH mark dates 1868-1881. Slight differences in the CFH mark would not be unusual. I think you're right that there were originally eight cups and quite possibly a tea, chocolate, and/or coffee pot. It may very well be a unique set so treasure the pieces you have. It's unlikely other pieces could be found. I can imagine the set being produced for export to a fine jewelry store in the states. It is quite a lovely set!</p><p>Don[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
