Enoch Wedgwood 1957 Gainsborough Blue Floral and 50 similar items

PersonallyByPat Linens, Home Decor More! * * * from my door to yours * * * Enoch Wedgwood Gainsborough Blue Floral 7 Cups, 8 Saucers, Made in England 1957 From my own collection of dishes, these are 7 cups and 8 saucers in the Gainsborough pattern in the blue color from Wedgwood Co. Ltd. by Enoch Wedgwood. The cups are marked on the bottom with "Gainsborough, Wedgwood Co. Ltd., Founded 1835, by Enoch Wedgwood," the unicorn symbol, and "ENGLAND" is impressed into the surface. The saucers are marked similarly with "Made in England, 3 57" printed on top the unicorn. I believe the numbers mean these were made in March 1957. Enoch Wedgwood was one of the owners of Wedgwood Co., formed in 1860, formerly known as Podmore Walker Co., which was then renamed Enoch Wedgwood (Tunstall) Ltd. in 1965. So the assumed date of 3/1957 fits in correctly with the Wedgwood Co. Ltd. name on the markings, and shows that Enoch was getting his name on the dishes before the company name was changed to his name. The cups measure 3 3/4 inches in diameter 2 1/4 inches tall at the rim. The saucers 5 5/8 inches in diameter and 7/8 inch tall at the rim. They are in excellent condition -- bright and shiny, with no chips cracks, or crazing, and no signs of coffee or tea stains. The cups hold 8 fluid ounces when filled up to the very top. They may have never been used. I know I have not used them while I have owned them. The cups and saucers are the last of a 39-piece set I had in this pattern, which I bought at an antique store years ago. The cups and saucers will come to you very carefully packed.
