Foley – Shelley, Snow drop chintz pattern. 

This is the earliest that Shelley china can be traced back to.

It was in 1872 that Joseph Shelley became a partner in Wileman & Company which it continued to manufacture under. Then in 1881 his son Joseph Shelly joined the company, in 1910 the company name was changed from Wileman & Company to Shelley.

This backstamp dates it to between 1890 and 1910

This pattern was a very popular, it was only ever produced on the Daisy shape, but in may different colours.

This trio is on lovely condition, with no chips, cracks or restoration.
