Salisbury Bone China - Daffodils & harebells

Salisbury Bone China - Daffodils & harebells:- My Grandmother's sister brought a tea/coffee set to her from Glasgow in 1966. There was a cake serving plate, a cream pitcher, a sugar bowl, a pot (looked too tall for a tea pot), 6 cake plates, 6 cups, 6 saucers.

When my Grandmother died, it passed down to my mother. When my Mother died, I asked for it. When it got to me the pot and the cream pitcher were gone...don't know if one of my sisters-in-law decided to keep them or if they had broken on the way to be packed and shipped.

I do have the sugar bowl, the serving plate, 6 cups, 6 saucers, and 6 cake plates. I would like to know the proper name of the pattern and the approximate date it was made...value if possible.

Hi Char

Salisbury Crown China was based in Longton, Staffordshire (the home of many bone china makers all side by side and cheek by jowl). They were established in 1927 and later in the 1960's bought out by nearby maker T. Poole's.

I believe your mark dates from the Thomas Poole era after 1961.
