<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ValerieK, post: 10098452, member: 7360&quot;]I think that is very helpful in pinning down a date when the general style was fashionable, both the handle and the outward sloping, straight-sided cup are near identical.&nbsp; The handle on mine is flat-sided, and on the listed example it has a groove, like on earlier Georgian pieces, but apart from that it&#039;s a near match.&nbsp; And hand painted at that date, too!&nbsp; Like you say, the Spode piece is more finely decorated, mine looks a bit crude in comparison.&nbsp; I think Copeland and Spode were actually quite good at marking their pieces even in Victorian times, and the number on mine was used very much earlier, so although probably not the exactly the right factory I think the right period, and will concentrate my search on factories of that period, (so many of them!)who might have numbers around 2000.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
