[QUOTE="say_it_slowly, post: 518390, member: 50"]I think the shape of your teapot would probably date 1830's or so. I did find a sugar bowl of similar shaped feet etc "T" Mayer impressed mark but as the "T" is akilter I'm not entirely sure it's for Thomas Mayer. I also found a teapot of same shape, different pattern, with mention of a stamped Mayer mark but no photo of it. Godden's British marks book doesn't show or mention any of the many Mayer potters as using just an impressed "Mayer". Likewise while it mentions T. Mayer as a printed mark used by Thomas Mayer, it doesn't specifically mention an impressed one. [URL]http://www.thepotteries.org/mark/m/mayert.html[/URL] I have a few books that show some patterns by pattern name and if I get a chance I'll browse through if no one has more info.
