How soon we forget
$200 on the set :wink:

Hey I'm a poet!
The paint you lovingly washed off was original to the piece I'm afraid. Rarely were these sets undecorated and most, like yours and the one I showed, are blue over white. The link by savant365 shows a smooth round-bodied pitcher that was never painted. Yours has faceted sides in low or bas-relief that just screams transfer-ware, (unless that is crazing I see)

IF yours is Royal Staffordshire Flow Blue, it WAS worth up to $200 on it's own. $500-$600 for the set on a good day.
You washed about $175 of that down the... well, wash basin, :D Still a nice decorative piece and one that garnered more than your cost's worth of conversation :icon_thumright:

I have too many Kathy Kale and Te-Oh pieces sitting around gathering dust but I'll bet it would make a heckuva auction.
HIJACK ALERT
Anybody here interested in some K.K. or Te-oh? :D
