A Crown Lynn Eggcup? Heather says that Ole King Cole is English

This is another of my late Mother's pieces, feels like it could be Crown Lynn, no mark on the base, but the base looks similar to a couple of their vases, which is why I was wondering. Did they make these sort of eggcups? sunny

Hi,

That eggcup I am 99% sure is English. There is an eggcup site, name escapes me, but they have eggcups for sale (it is a UK site) and this one appears often. I will try to hunt out a previous post I made on it. Very Happy

Found it on Ruby Lane - sometimes it is easier to prove something isnt Crown Lynn than know it is..

Thanks for that. I'm pleased to say mine is in much better condition, no crazing.

I have just had to banana box all mine to make room on my shelves for other stuff... Very Happy
