I think I picked up a bargain or two at the local today

The canisters are in very good condition and the bird bookends? are marked Atholl.

I need help with the birds because I can't find much on the web. Any information for the listing will be gratefully received. I think I found out they are associated with C R Hose.

Thanks.

Those bookends are brilliant.  Well this week my camera is getting fixed , but I have Also managed to walk in and out a couple of oppies and  not spend a cent.  However am expecting a niece up soon and she wasnt to go.....opping.

hi Georgygirl, the birds bookends according to Geoff Ford ency marks :Atholl ware  super vitrified circular emblem dates1954-1958. black undeglaze mark.

Atholl in cursive script  have a black underglaze stamp dates to 1954-1958

or if they have a green on silver label 1955-1958.

After that time frame there was Rembrandt fine china then everything else after that was CRHose.

His business was set up in 1945, ,then moved to Melb Chelsea 1951 and decorated blanks from EnglandJapan ,Taiwan and some from Elischer pottery. He mover to Frankston after a fire in 1974.

Hope this helps, I still have a childs cup with Atholl backstamp on.
