[QUOTE="Coinanthebarbarian, post: 9804830, member: 24227"]Good evening everyone, I have recently purchased some shards and pieces of China and pottery for my Victorian Gold Rush Collection. (Australia). I am told these date from the 1850s to around 1900. I am just wondering if anyone is able to help me with an approximate date of these pieces? Is it even possible to determine a date without any maker marks or stamps, especially on the unglazed one? I will just show these 2 pieces here as I don’t want to fill up the threads with lots and lots of photos - I know how annoying this can be. There are a couple kilos of pieces this size and smaller. I am interested to find out more about these pieces and learn a bit about pottery, as it is something I have no knowledge in. Thanks in advance.
