I bought a dinner service,not complete but nice anyway,and hope to sell it to make some money towards my wedding.I am having trouble finding the backstamp anywhere online and wonder if you could help.I will get a photo posted but in the meantime the description is as follows-The plates are scalloped edge and have a dark blue floral pattern on edge and trailing into centre of plate.
The back has 2 impressed marks,one is a triangle with CTM inside and the other I cannot make out properly but looks like RS 703 inside a rectangle with the corner missing(its an odd shape but thats the best I can describe it.
The printed mark is blue same as plate design.Triangle inside triangle with CTM inside and TRADE then MARK up outer sides of triangle.Above triangle is DRESDEN,below is ESTAB1762 ENGLAND.
TRADE MARK was mainly used after 1875 but was used before that a little,that doesnt help me date it then.Anyone?

Have figured out its Maling pottery(thats the CTM in triangle) and date 1875-1908.The name 'dresden' then is obviously not the factory as I originally thought but must be the pattern name.I cannot find it online,does anyone know anything about Maling?
