In 1950 Susie Cooper China Ltd. was established. New delicate shapes were introduced that were not possible to make in earthenware. To differentiate between the earthenware still being produced and the new china patterns, numbers were prefixed with a ‘C’ and unlike the earthenware numbers, were started at C1. The overlap in production bodies continued until around 1964, when earthenware production ceased in favour of the bone china body.
The following numbers were used for bone china. A large number of these bone china patterns also had official names as well.
Approx. Number Range | Approx. Production Year |
---|---|
C1 – C702 | 1951 – 1955 |
C703 – C1052 | 1956 – 1960 |
C1053 – C2099 | 1961 – 1966 |
