How can you tell if a Crown Derby is real?
1 Answer
To tell if a Crown Derby is real, first compare the backstamps on your piece to images of markings located on authentic pottery produced around the same time. Any inconsistencies in these markings may indicate that your item is a reproduction. You can also explore Royal Crown Derby catalogues to determine if the maker ever produced similar pieces. Because it can be difficult to differentiate convincing counterfeits from authentic pieces without training and experience, you may also wish to use the services of a certified appraiser or antique dealer.
