Pottery stamp reads – EstB 1657, Adams, England, Calyx Ware, 2744. 2744 appears to be the pattern name of Singapore bird, but other examples of this pattern show the bird and flowers painted in various colors, whereas this cup has a red outline only. This pottery stamp was first used in 1896. Cup looks old, and writer can not find another example of one on line.
