Thank you both for your help xx
I am keeping most of the set (which is incomplete) as i am very attached to it. I am selling maybe 3 cups and a few saucers and plates as they won't fit on dresser. Would you recommend ebay to sell them and should i sell them all together, separately or i have seen sets of cup, saucer and plate sold together. Any advice would be great
Thankyou xxx

Hi, hoping someone can help me, i recently received some tea cups and saucers etc after the death of my Grandad i believe they belonged to his parents. I have been searching on line to try and find out their age and possible value. I believe they are pre 1914 but i cannot find any listings about this particular design to find out for sure or to guess at a value. I think they are beautiful, i believe they are hand painted with that very delicate design. I find it strange that i have 3 cups, 1 plate and some kind of bowl (last pic) which are listed as being the same design by the same manufacturer which are a slightly different colour and the marking on the plate is the same as the rest but in a different colour. Any help would be really appreciated.
Thankyou xxx
