[QUOTE="Barry Stephen, post: 4485432, member: 70690"]Hello all, I picked this up recently and although I'm not really into this style the fact that it didn't have a paragon backstamp made me curious. Having read previous posts on Paragon I understand that not all designs were named and that they were not always too efficient with marks etc, especially in the 1930's. Looks hand painted to my inexperienced eye and plenty of gilt. So what I am asking is;[ATTACH=full]390129[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]390130[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]390131[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]390132[/ATTACH] Can anyone identify this pattern? Why is there no backstamp? Is the signature of the decorator ie M.K (or R) Clark or a designer? Is the number really 1933 or a model number? If the latter can anyone date it? I have seen an identical shape by googling 'Paragon convolvulus teapot' but of course its painted differently. Was this a common teapot shape which came in different patterns? grateful for any thoughts you may have, many thanks[/QUOTE]
