    Hi guys.

    I got passed these really nice cups and saucers by my dad.

    Unfortunately over the years and several house moves I have lost a few pieces, most importantly the saucer with the makers name.

    i remember it said hand painted in green paint. I kinda remember they might be by nicholas drake, staffordshire mid 1920s but I am drawing blanks from google.

    Can anyone help with an id and if anyone has any for sale, send me a message!

    I have found them, James Kent circa 1930s. Don't know where nicolas drake came from. ha!

    This one I found is for sale so I am going to buy it to replace my lost pieces.

    I have noticed a small difference in the way the flowers are painted between my set and the set I found. Must be a different artist?

    Wouldn't that be the result of hand painting?

    Beat me to it. ;)

    Yes, hand painted and that's the delight of them.
