Fake wash bowl Ironstone England 1890
« on: October 28, 2013, 11:28:15 pm »
Hi
Saw this at a thrift store today for $5. Did not buy it. But just wanted to show ths fake. It looks fake to me and this page mentions it also.
The bottom mark says "Ironstone England 1890"
The authentic basins I have bought never say 1890. Do any say this?

These were reproduced in the late 60`s and 70`s !! I think the date is for the original production,, not the repro`s !! You will notice a similarity in style in the one you saw and the ebay link !!

Likely wasn`t made in England !! You can find this type at most garage sales !! All very similar style !!
