Question
QUESTION: Hello,
I have two pieces of black Wedgwood from England- appear to be small sugar and creamer. marking on bottom of creamer is 2 1/2 marking on sugar bowl is a 3. Can you tell me about the value of these pieces. Thank you. Lori

ANSWER: Lori,
The markings sound like they might be inches? Is the creamer 2 1/2" tall? Is the sugar bowl 3"? I'm not an expert at valuing ceramics, but I can point you to some people who are. I'm traveling right now so I don't have my resource list with me, but I'm happy to follow up. Measure them & let me know if the inches match up and when I return home I'll shoot you some sites & people who may be able to help. Leisha

QUESTION: Thank you for your response. They don't appear to be related to the size. Both are less than 3 " tall. one is 2" and the other appr. 2 1/4. Lori

Answer
Lori,
I've returned home. I'll do some searching in my books & shoot you some websites to check out. Leisha

Lori,
Sorry to take so long. Here's some sites you might check for more info. Hope this helps. Leisha
