Help with an identification of these pieces please. I will post a link to my facebook page which is a lot easier then trying to spend time shrinking the pictures.
I have found the identical mark which is a B on a teapot which dated to the Barr period. but still unsure.

I have looked through at least 6 different lists, histories and the Royal Worcester museum and have found nothing that says they used a B mark during the Barr period. The Blue and white above was Dr Wall period !! I have not found where Flight and Barr made Blue and white patterns,, but I may have missed that !! There are some Flight and Barr pics too and at the bottom is the mark used !! Will continue checking but I am pretty sure your cups are from a Japanese import Tea Set !!
I had already looked at the mark on the figurine forum !! Just because I do not answer immediately doesn`t mean I have ignored your post !! I did look and found the second B mark !! Seems like I have researched this same mark a couple of years ago on another forum !! It looks familiar for some reason !! You are calling these “cups” but I see no handle !! The pattern is similar to some of the blue willow pieces !!
Any chance we can figure out the markings on my cups lol. Ill post the link again and the one with the identical same marking from the barr period.

No I am not a former teacher !! But I have used the exclamation points so long I am too old to change now !! If you will bump your post up tomorrow I will see which one it was that I missed !! Remember, I am not a part of the Kovels organization !! Just a person with some experience that tries to help as my time permits !! There are some things that I spend days researching and others are easier and then there are some that are never found !!
And I only use two exclamation points unless my finger slips !! LOL !!
For now I am going to bed !!
Gareth, this doesn’t help you identify your pieces, but here’s a great website that compresses photos instantly. [url=http://]http://jpeg-optimizer.com/[/url]
The person who likes to use exclamation points!!!! did the same thing to me, and then did not address my question even once my photos were available in my post. I think she may be a former teacher!!!!!
