How do you identify Staffordshire porcelain marks?

1 Answer
How do you identify Staffordshire porcelain marks?
To identify Staffordshire porcelain marks, first look to see if your piece has a loosely knotted rope logo. Some items produced in Staffordshire bear this mark. Many pieces also feature a second or alternate maker's mark corresponding to the factory that produced it, such as Spode, Minton and Wedgwood. Online reference guides published on trusted websites can help you determine who made your piece based on these markings. Keep in mind that some Staffordshire porcelain is completely unmarked. If you can't locate a marking, consider having a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antique dealer assist you. Explore a wide variety of Staffordshire porcelain on 1stDibs.
