Dear Elizabeth

Well! You have me stumped. I have some serious reference encyclopaedias at my disposal and none of them mention a china manufacturer spelled Hammersly. There are several spelled Hammersley. The most comprehensive online gallery of makers and patterns in the history of the industry can be found on the award winning site, replacements.com (go to my China Replacement page for a link) - and they don't mention a Hammersly only Hammersley.

You mention a pottery mark with a Royal Crest. I can sometimes identify a china manufacturer by looking up the pottery mark - so a picture would be a great help.

My theory is this: Hammersly is a very small local maker or had a very brief history, and has been overlooked by the reference books. It could also be a modern maker maybe. It would most definitely be included in the records otherwise.

Please keep us posted if you are able to find out any more info on the mysterious Hammersly.

Best regards

Hammersley, not Hammersly

I'm sitting here looking at a Hammersley & Co. teacup. So at least some bone china manufacturer spells it this way.

I have a Hammersley tea set - 12 trios, cream jug, sugar bowl and 2 cake plates. they have an impressed crown with H & Co impressed also. So am assuming this is Hammersley. They have Rd no. 150153 and pattern no. 3986. They have a white background with gold/brown leafage and a blue flower - appears to be maybe thistle or cornflower - The edges are trimmed with gold. A really lovely set, but can't find anything anywhere about it. Have a photo if anyone can help am happy to send.

Hello

I cannot find a record or pictures or anything on any website regarding this tea set that I have.

If you could help me with the history and value, I would be so grateful. I think it was a rare set for the Queens Jubilee.
