Hi did anyone have any luck with the green crossed anchor teapot as I have inherited the set and have no idea where to start searching the mark. Does anyone have the book of marks from Amazon? Thanks Line

I also have a teaset with these crossed green anchor marks. Has anyone found out any more abou them? Mine were from my grandmother who was Irish and she married in the early 1900s so I suspect they could have been new then.

Would really like to hear of any information.

Good theory Jakes but it would never work for me. I love my collections too much to get rid of them.

I’m also a collector of many old stuff, but I find a cure, when you move sell it and just start new at your new place, then you have all the excitment all over.

Hi Fiona and Katherine

I’d love to be able to tell you more about your crossed green anchors but I’m still searching for information myself. A few people have commented here that they have porcelain with this mark on it so I’m hopeful that someone will be able to give me more info some day. Stay tuned.

Hi, I have a teapot and sugar bowl white with gold trim and pink roses, on the bottom of both pieces
are green crossed anchors can you tell me anything about them. The pieces were given to my Mum by her sister in Ireland years and years ago.

hi
I have a set of china with crossed green swords and am trying to find out anything I can about them, they were given to me by a lady who’s mother had given it to her so I presume they are quite old. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Lynn
It’s very exciting to hear that someone else has porcelain with this mark. Do you have any photos? I would love to see them if you do.
