I have googled and can't find out what this one is called.
Is it easier to put up a pic of what I am trying to match?
I bought a plate and saucer at the oppie yesterday and now I have to have the cup.
Solved! Go to Solution.

You can image search on google, that would be the way to do it 🙂
Take a few pics, of the independent pieces, close up of the pattern
If you put up a pic here someone might know

Take a pic and put it up on the Coins, Stamps, Collectables & Antiques board.
They're pretty cluey on stuff like that, and always friendly and helpful.

Look underneath for any sort of name or design number, then google the china brand eg Royal Doulton, Noritake etc. Even without a pattern name or number, some companies have pages showing their designs going back years.
There is also a company called Chinafinders that have local and international sites that specialise in identifying and locating locationg pieces.
If you are able to identify the brand and pattern, searches internationally (including eBay) often turn up pieces surprisingly inexpensively. I recently managed to locate an old Doulton saucer for my cousin (dog's tail knocked it off the coffee table at a family function - not MY dog), and had it sent from USA for $24 including freight and it arrived perfect in about 10 days!

I can't ID the pattern. The maker is Royal Grafton.
Here are some pics:

That's beautiful Buzz. I hope you can find the cup.

The closest I can find is the Malvern set but it is a different edge. The floral pattern is very much alike but not quite the same.
