How do I date Meakin pottery?
To date Meakin pottery, look for its markings and then use trusted online resources to figure out when the British maker added those particular marks to pieces. Over the years, Meakin has updated its pottery marks many times. For example, Meakin added "England" to its markings in 1890, so pieces that lack the word usually date back to before 1890. If you need help determining the age of a particular piece, consult a certified appraiser or knowledgeable antiques dealer. On 1stDibs, explore an assortment of pottery.
