Featured Spode? Tea set

Picked this set up just now. All in all about 6 of the demitasse cups, 6 of the tea ones, a small plate maybe for cake, nom, a creamer and a lidded sugar. Oh and four saucers only sadly. Hopefully I can get some to make it complete. Just having a pint and a Google. Various results including miles mason, Spode, Coalport etc. looking at the pattern on the handles I'd say Spode but not sure. A couple of the pieces have numerical marks but they are buried in my bag. I'll have a root when I get home.

 

The sugar bowl and saucers/plates have the numerals 613 on the base. Looks like Coalport numbering maybe?

 

that lush gilding really sets them apart, i'd think quite a decent maker

 

gives it a hellava nice contrast

 

Aye. It's got quality. I think I got there just in time. As soon as I got on the floor to look at it, I had some guy virtually sat on my shoulder. I knew if I walked away it would be gone. Not a hard decision in this case though.

All the saucers and plates are decorated differently.

 

is it definitely transferware, i'm presuming yes, but it sort of looks like it isn't as well

 

Can't tell to be honest. The colour seems to be pooled and denser in areas. But maybe that's just copied. When did transfer ware begin as I think these are early 19th.

 

from what i remember it was exactly around that time, 1900s i think

i'm leaning towards painted as the image is so clean

 

doesn't look like any overlap or smudging either

 

that would be quite something if they are painted

 

Oooh. Getting technical now

 

edit thats like 1805 not 1905 if you know what i mean harry

 

Ha. It would. Might send images over to an auction house to see if they say yay or nay. Going to one next week with the Yokohama vases so I'll see what they say

 

I say potarto

 

didn't see them dude ?

 

Scene with the castle on looks like one of these Spode ones pattern 557.

 

seems they are painted, didn't think that gilding would be on anything less

Thanks. They are very similar.

 

Hmm the jug vanishes when you click on the link. If I scroll down on the screen if appears for half a second then vanished again. Technology!
