Caribbean Shipwreck China

[old man]

Does anyone know of any books where I can research which Countries and Years these China pieces may have come from. There was more then one wreck in the immediate area that they were found and I am trying find something out about the pieces. Thanks

Hey Old Man... Not positive but at first glance, your shards are English made... I have a few books I'll check for you. Phips

Phips, Thanks. I know that Dutch, French, English and Spanish Ships frequented the bay where the pieces were found.
Many of them Pirate Ships.

Awesome... Love pirate wrecks... You just never know what will turn up on them! I have some similar pieces that came from several sites and time periods from both England and the Cariibbean, but will see what I can come up with from my resource materials.

Old Man...

I haven't really had the chance to dig into my books yet but off the top of my head...

The blue and white shard appears to be Blue Willow... English manufacture... Began as early as the 1780's and is still produced today.

The red and white shard is 19th century English and is possibly what is known as transfer ware.

The brown and white is also 19th century English and appears to also be transfer ware.

I recognize the last shard with multi color pattern but can't think of the name of the manufacturer right now... I ran across some of this type during a visit to Port Royal, Jamaica. If it comes to me, I will be sure to let you know, but once again, 19th century English production...

Hope this helps...
best, Phips
