I found this at the Thrift Store yesterday, it was an interesting look, and very reasonable price, so thought I would take a chance, and buy it. The CW curse(Find, Research, and Post), or Post and hope for information, got me! :^D
After searching a little under blue and white pottery, I saw a piece of Wedgwood China Jasperware, I knew it wasn't that but, the pattern looked similar. My next search under Wedgwood China patterns, brought me to Wedgwood Queensware, the same pattern, but not shape, or style. So here I am, Looks like Wedgwood China's Queensware, pattern copy? But by who? I have a link with the Queensware pattern that I'll post in comments.
The blue glaze over white, with clear glaze overall serving bowl is 8"wide by 3"high, and 7 3/8" across the top. It has 2 sets of kiln firing stilt marks, first for the white and airbrushed blue glaze, and then for the clear glaze firing, and no other marks. Got anything? &:^?
Thanks for looking, and take a guess?! All comments are welcome! :^)
Here's the Queensware link:

Thanks again for looking! :^)
I think not Wedgwood. Mostly everything theirs is marked with an impressed mark.
It is a lovely piece Bill!
Yes you're right Kevin, it's not correct either, it is the same design, not as sharp, but the glaze over takes care of that. It's a mold of a piece of Wedgewood, with a shape change, but someone should know who made this bowl, I just want to know too! :^D
Thank you Judy, that's why I got it, and didn't think it was Wedgwood, until I saw the same exact design on the Wedgwood China patterns.
Thanks for all the love,
bb2 was here,
and Kevin, and Judy Too!
Its nice to see all of you, and much appreciated! :^)
fortapache, Thomas, and Jlmam, thank you all, for looking at, and loving this interesting bowl! :^)
Nice find Bill :)
Great color! Nice find Bill :)
aura and Rick, thanks to you both for stopping by and giving some love! :^)
Rick, thank you for the comment! It is a nice blue, the airbrushing gives it a nice color fade, it was mainly used in the 1950's and 60's, so that's when this was probably made, but I wish I knew by who! :^)
Hi Mary, nice of you to stop by, and leave some love for this bowl, thank you very much! :^)
It's too bad I couldn't meet you and let you see the Godey Lady's Book in person, when we were down in Carlsbad, 2 weeks ago. We're both just too busy, but I was thinking about you, that's why I brought it down there with me! :^D
