This company was founded in 1884 at Anchor Road, Longton, Stoke-on-Trent. In 1970, the Gailey Group merged their British Anchor into their business. The mark at the bottom of these items was introduced in 1950. The cup is in good condition with a little wear on the gold only as well as a production at the base of the cup. The saucer has small wear on the gold rim and print as well as surface marks towards the center due to usage.
