Porcelain Dinnerware

Description

I have 8 porcelein dinnerware settings.  I am not sure where they came from only that my mother obtained them somewhere.  On the back of the plates and saucers there is a shape of a U with a pointed bottom of the U.  Inside the U it reads "Warranted, 22 Carat Gold, Amhurst.

On the front of the plates and on the cups there is a circular design of what looks to be cone shaped palm trees with a circle under it which, in the center of the circle, appears to have a ships wheel design in each.  The outer and inner of the plates is outlined in gold.  There is some chipping of he gold on the outter outline gold trim.

I have a set of 8 in fair condition, but two of the coffee cups have broken.  The set is large plates, small plates,  saucers, and the coffee cups.  

I am wondering if you knew where this may have come from/been made and what the value might be?  Again, the  items are in fair to good condition but with two of the coffee cups broken/chipped.  

Thank you,

Chris Butcher

Any time you see a warranted gold marking on china, it's generally fairly modern post WW2 stuff. Sets without company markings like this tend to have been made for department stores. The market is currently flooded with mid 20th century dinner ware and whole sets without any damage often sell at auction for under $150.00.
