<p>[QUOTE=&quot;LaceDowd, post: 202353, member: 3780&quot;]Hello. I have been researching this Ironstone Teapot my Grandmother has to try and estimate around how old it may be, but I am having trouble with the stamp on the bottom.</p><p><br /></p><p>It is a W. &amp; E. Corn Ironstone Tea pot, that was hand painted for my Grandmothers, Great Grandparents for their wedding. While many of the tea pots I&#039;ve seen online have the raised wheat pattern this one seems to have a leaf pattern that someone painted gold overtop.</p><p><br /></p><p>The stamp at the bottom however doesn&#039;t seem to match any of the guides. They have the same coat of arms as the ones listed to have been manufactured between 1864-1891 but the wording doesn&#039;t match. It also has a raised stamp that matches the shape of the items used from 1900-04 but the writing is not clear enough for me to make out.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have seen many of these teapots listed on ebay, etsy and other online shops for between $50-350. value is not my concern at this moment, we are trying to determine how old it may even be.</p><p><br /></p><p>From looking online the way the writing is around the coat of arms matches a different company style.</p><p><br /></p><p>Any ideas?[ATTACH=full]58135[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]58135[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]58135[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]58135[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]58135[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
