Title: LUXOR made in England
Post by: carlacornflakes on October 08, 2005, 04:35:05 PM

i recently found two matching food serving bowls/warmers which appear to be old. they have the markings " LUXOR made in England," followed by two long "ro no" nubers, there are a couple of gold marks on them too: one looks like a N or z and the another on the lid looks like a number,

 they are both round with a black and white design arouond the rim and lid which has gold incorperated, and two little handles joined by a leaf design, i relly have no clue what they are or what value if any they have, so if any one has any idea, please let me know!

a bit more info - ro no numbers - could it be rd no - followed by a string of numbers? if it is that's the registration number - couldn't find Luxor as a mfgr - that may well be a pattern - any chance you can post pics of items as well as backstamps?

Thanks to you "newbie" - as a web researcher who loves pottery/porcelain I'm always looking for links -

And here's the premier British pottery site of the Staffordshire area:

Steve Birks was very helpful to me in a research project, and while he doesn't get into values as such, his knowledge of the area's history is awesome.     KB
