does the bottom of the scuttles say where they are made?
tintin~You bet!
It seems they had a few potters in Staffordshire, England around that time. They are old. The one I call Geezer says a name (can't make it out) with "Painted Fine Staffordshire Earthenware, England". It also appears to have an Indian with a feather on his head-I think.........might be another image.
The Blue one says James Kent, Old Foley, Staffordshire, Made in England, 18th Century Chintz.
Trevor, I can't help the mp of my camera, that's just modern technology & I intentionally showed the chip because when looking at it w/o a camera, it isn't noticeable. I know you understand because we have pm'd so many times! :beer1:
