Antiques

Can anyone recommend a forum or site where I can ask questions about antique pottery? I have inherited a few bits of old cups and saucers and plates but would love to know the value of some of them.

For instance, if anyone knows the answer, I have a pair of china cups and saucers with the makers stamp of JZ&Co very faintly on the bottom. Above the mark are the numbers 197 - the 7 could also be an fancy M. The mark is only on the saucers, nothing on the matching cups.

I have googled the company who are a German manufacturer but not sure the year of these items. Mid 1800's I think.

Re: Antiques

Hi

There are many auctioneers who have valuation days, these are free and you never know, you may have a real rarity on your hands.

Thank you for the link. I cannot see my particular mark but it looks like somewhere I might find out more about it.
