Scored some Belleek Today

I paid $60 for the 8 pieces, $15 off the $75 asking price. Most of this lot has the second black mark which dates it between 1891 and 1926. Only the pitcher is a "newer" piece having the fourth green mark on it. The shakers are unmarked. I should easily double my money on the teapot alone.

I know nothing about this type of stuff but it I like the design and clover pattern.

Great find. Dishes from overseas is one item I look for. I used to pick up teapots from the local TS almost daily and did a quick sell on the bay. Now days they don't make it to the self. I think some time they watch what I am buying. Also used to get a lot of Frankhoma pottery (local favorite). Once the asst manager checked out my stuff I wanted to buy, she said hmmm, Frankhoma. Never see it put out any more. I guess I should buy some plastic crap to throw them off my trail.

That's a good-looking pattern that should sell quite well. Tried a few times with a few ceramics but haven't done well so I stay away from it.

The cool thing that you, me and maybe a couple of other people know is that this stuff is becoming extremely rare and hard to find in good condition. I love the teapot. It defines Belleek. All of your pieces are in a most desirable pattern. Well done...

I see Belleek at least once a month. Unfortunately it's always the plain cream colored pieces which don't seem to sell for enough to make buying worthwhile.

I saw a vase at another sale with a $50 price tag. It sells for less than $20 on ebay.
