<p>[QUOTE=&quot;bluumz, post: 11531121, member: 649&quot;]Just my humble opinion <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" />...</p><p>A &quot;London shape&quot; cup has straight sides, yours is flared a bit so I believe it may be more correctly called an &quot;Old English shape&quot;. (See <a href="https://www.danielcc.org/cups.php?s=old-english-shape" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.danielcc.org/cups.php?s=old-english-shape" rel="nofollow">THIS</a>.) The body of the Old English cup is sometimes fluted or paneled, but not always.</p><p>However, even among cup/saucer collectors there is some disagreement/confusion concerning shape names of cups.</p><p>The handle style is often called &quot;batwing&quot;.</p><p>I&#039;m surprised there is not even a painted number on the bottoms of the pieces, which was fairly common on older English stuff.</p><p>Though English remains a possibility, I&#039;d also consider Old Paris porcelain <i>(Vieux Paris)</i>, which was typically unmarked.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
