'Standard China' England? - Antique China, Fine China and Modern China Manufacturers Query: Hello! Greetings from rainy Massachusetts! You have a very comprehensive website!, but I am having trouble locating the history (and worth) of some saucers that are marked "Standard China England" on the bottom. I have looked at lot around the Internet, and could find nothing. Your site has so much information on it, that I thought you might have some idea of what I have here.

Hello Judy Judy Judy (as Cary Grant might have said!)

Thanks for your query. Sorry it's raining in Massachusetts. In Olde England, it's sunny right now!

I am not an expert, as I keep saying, but I love it when I have answers for my visitors.

'Standard China' was a brand name / trademark of Chapmans Longton Ltd, Albert Works, Longton, Staffordshire potteries. The graphic at the top of the page gives you the dates of the various marks. They are not to be confused


with another Longton firm called David Chapman & Sons later renamed Chapman & Sons (Stoke-on-Trent) Ltd, then later still Atlas China Co Ltd.

The pottery marks associated with Chapmans Longton Ltd, founded 1916 are:

Standard China

Royal Standard

Royal Mayfair (bone china) 1938 - 1941

As you can see from the above graphic at time of writing there was a lone saucer by Chapmans (Royal Standard brand) on sale on UK eBay for £2.95 GBR plus £2.95 GBR P&P.

To get an idea of current prices, you could always check out the page I've written especially to help visitors to this site research their wares:

This exclusive identification & valuation resource allows you to see if the mark is identifiable by experts without you having to pay any money upfront. My service is unique online and is designed to protect my site visitors from wasting their time and money online.

Hope this information helps!

want more of a set
by: jean

Hi. I bought an egg cup and saucer with the standard china logo on the bottom at a thrift store. According to your info it is from the 20's or 30's and I just love it. I've never seen an egg cup like it and would like to find 3 more to make a set. The saucer is tiny and the egg cup is removable and cut out silver and has two legs that grab the edges of the saucer. How do you suggest I go about it?

thanks

How to Save an Ebay Search

You need to get into ebay and 'save a search' which will mean when your egg cups come up for auction, ebay will email you.

I hear you say "How do I save a search?".

I have a page which gives you the full low down:-

Peter (admin says):

Go to my home page and put into the search box at the top "royal albert". You will see the link to my main article on Royal Albert - one of the greatest makers ever to grace Staffordshire. Old Country Roses is the most famous bone china pattern in the world for tea sets and holds the record for the most widely produced pattern in the history of fine bone china making
