Title: Thomas KPM Krister China
Post by: vicnkaren on February 26, 2011, 11:46:08 PM

I have a twelve place setting (95 pieces) of Thomas KPM Krister Leaf Pattern 730 china, purchased in 1957. In storage since 1957. What might it be worth?

Can you take a close up of the mark on the bottom of a plate or other larger piece ??

There has been a few krister items listed on ebay. People were listing them in a wide range of prices.  .99 - $549.00. 5 out of 26 of the items sold, and the highest sold item was $10.00

Looked around and Replacements didn`t have anything in that pattern. I looked on ebay as well and there were a number of KPM by several artists/designers. I think Krister is the designer. There were several others. Of all the pieces listed only two had bids and they were exceptional pieces. The pattern of your china is not what I would call a popular one. Good thing is that you have many pieces all in good condition. I would say if you sold it,, you could probably get around $300. to $350. for all. On a good day !! KPM has fallen in popularity a great deal. Once again it depends on your particular area too. Some places they just sell better than others.

Mark is from 1952 - 1965 of Krister Porcelain Manufactory  as noted by our fellow antiquer Chris' site!

If the set is immaculate and full service is there as you indicated, $200 - $350 depending on the area you are in. However, the personal value of it being from family is priceless!
