How to I learn if this is a real period piece or a newer reproduction? It was my mother's and I am not sure how she came to have it.

Help us close this case. Add your knowledge below.

There are so many reproductions out there. This looks to be antique, but I'm not an expert. Anyone know how to tell?

I think it could be a recent reproduction out of China. I saw a large blue and white charger for sale in a charity shop with a back stamp similar to yours, and though I didn’t buy it I checked it out online later, and was convinced it wasn’t genuine.

I don't think it could be a recent reproduction out of china. I have had it for 2o years

They have been faking marks for years and there’s no place of origin, which would be very unusual on Victoria pottery. Here is a great resource for Stoke on Trent pottery in Staffordshire , and actually has an examples of fake marks, unfortunately one of them appears to be the same as yours
