its hard to say...but judging by what some of the other pieces are selling for, on average 1 x plate £10...and upwards...but other pieces vary from £5 right up to £100 per piece...but you have to find out about Sammers....

there is, i think, a copyright symbol after Sammers so he is likely the decorator !!

Hi Thom...i.ve had a reply from Denmark regarding your tea set.....and as you can see you were correct..and i was mistaken...i think i need a new eye test.... ;D..it is Hammerso...contents of email...


Hi Will

The Soholm Teaset is from the collection called: "Hammerso" not "Sammerso".

It´s produced in Denmark on the island Bornholm around 1950.
