This site was created by the late Stewart Hudson. His foresight and your contributions to the makers' backstamps and the backstamp illustrations database have enabled this site to grow in its usefulness. If you can help with either photographs or information we have compiled a "wish" list on a separate page.
We receive many requests to identify makers of Asiatic Pheasants and if you send photographs we will do our best to do so. However, we are unable to offer valuations.
Also available on our other site Lovers of Blue & White is a wide selection of 19th and 20th Century Staffordshire and other blue and white transferware in many different designs.
