<p>[QUOTE="TheVeryThoughtOfYou, post: 250319, member: 4961"]Hiya! I inherited my grandmother's Wedgwood collection, which mostly consists of pieces from the 50s-70s, but I'm attempting to "age" the collection by getting some older pieces. I recently acquired these through EBTH.com (which is GREAT!) and I think they're 1800s, but I wondered if anyone could narrow them down further for me. I've become pretty good at deciphering Wedgwood marks, but these just don't have enough information. I'd appreciate any help you can give!</p><p><br /></p><p>The first piece (and my favorite!) is a small mortar and pestle. It has a Wedgwood slug with serifs, plus a 2, X, and what I *think* is a moustache mark, which would put it 1795-1850 (though I wonder if it could be narrowed down). The next two pieces are small ironstone jelly molds with a serif Wedgwood. The "fig" mold has a 3 and what looks to be a heart, but I can't decipher anything besides the Wedgwood slug on the tiered mold.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]77169[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]77170[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]77171[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]77172[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]77173[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]77174[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]77175[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
